Electric Aircraft - Thematic Intelligence
Summary

Technological advances in batteries, electric motors, and lightweight composite materials in recent years have made the development of electric aircraft increasingly viable, and in many cases a reality. Lithium-ion batteries can offer a great enough specific energy to allow electric aircraft to compete with conventionally powered aircraft in many sectors. The benefits and applications of electric aircraft are diverse, ranging from cleaner commercial aviation to air taxis, high-speed broadband enablers, and even space launch systems. With such a range of potential applications, electric aircraft have provided a transformative change in the aerospace and defense sector.
