The Allplane Podcast #140: electric aviation infrastructure w/Dr. Stefan Breunig (Albatross)

The path towards electric aviation is not an easy one. On this podcast we have talked on previous occasions about some of the challenges it faces, from getting batteries with enough energy density to setting up a supply chain from scratch. One area we have so far - until now, at least! - paid little attention to is that of ground infrastructure. Our guest for this episode, Dr. Stefan Breunig, is the co-founder and managing director of Albatross, a German company that is working precisely in this space. The electric aviation revolution will need to get supplied by a reliable stream of green electricity, but it also represents an opportunity for airports and other players in the aviation ecosystem to develop new lines of business which stretch well beyond aviation. Can airports become green electricity hubs? What are the challenges the industry faces on this front, in Germany and elsewhere? Tune in for a fascinating conversation with one of Europe’s top electric aviation experts!
