Air-taxis could soon become a reality in our cities. Many of them use batteries to enable sustainable and efficient flights. Despite much innovation in the battery space in recent years, the technology available at the moment means that for every minute spent flying, the air-taxi will need to charge for another minute on the ground. This leads to low utilisation rates and higher cost. We propose a new power source, using the best batteries available and combine them with a Hydrogen fuel cell. Such a new power architecture could reduce the time spent for charging to minutes and make the air-taxi more profitable and affordable to customers.

在我们的城市，空气税很快就会成为现实。他们中的许多人使用电池来实现可持续和高效的航班。尽管近年来电池空间进行了大量创新，但目前可用的技术意味着，在每分钟飞行的每一分钟，空气税收都需要在地面上再充电。这导致利用率较低和成本较高。我们建议使用可用的最佳电池，并将它们与氢燃料电池组合在一起。这样的新电源架构可以将充电所花费的时间减少到几分钟，并使空气税更加有利可图，并使客户负担得起。
