ZeroAvia's hydrogen fuel cell powertrain program is the most documented attempt to overcome the 300-nautical-mile range ceiling that battery electric aviation cannot break.
VectorZeroAvia flew a hydrogen fuel cell-powered Dornier 228 in January 2023, marking the most significant step yet toward zero-emission regional aviation.
VectorHeart Aerospace's ES-30 hybrid-electric airliner could cut regional airline fuel costs by up to 70% with entry into service targeted around 2028-2029.
VectorHeart Aerospace scrapped its all-electric ES-19 and pivoted to the hybrid-electric ES-30, a pragmatic bet on physics over hype.
VectorJetZero's blended wing body aircraft could cut airliner fuel burn by 25-50%, with a full-scale prototype funded by the Air Force expected to fly in 2027.
VectorHeart Aerospace's ES-30 hybrid-electric airliner could reshape regional flying with 200 nm battery range and major airline backing.
VectorATR dominates the turboprop regional market with 75% share, and rising fuel costs and sustainability mandates are making its case stronger than ever.
TowerHeart Aerospace's ES-30 hybrid-electric airliner offers three operating modes and could replace aging turboprops by 2028.
VectorHydrogen fuel cells may replace avgas in aviation, with flight-tested technology and a realistic timeline stretching from 2029 for regional aircraft to the late 2030s for GA.
