Electrification offers the promise of more efficient and sustainable flight, by reducing fuel consumption, extending aircraft range and decreasing operating costs for our customers. We are delivering more sustainable power than ever before and intelligently distributing it to systems across the platform, whilst ensuring availability of electrical power where it is needed to ensure safe operation.
“Technology advancements in power and energy density over the last years have evolved and we are able to realise the innovative solutions that have technological and economic benefits to existing aircraft propulsion systems across all sectors, including Defence.
“Across Rolls-Royce as a whole, we are already championing sustainable power – developing and testing innovative technologies and systems, together with our partners, to create the electric propulsion and energy systems that our future societies will require.”
Phil Townley, Director Future Programmes, Defence
