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.

空中出租车很快就会在我们的城市成为现实。其中许多飞机使用电池来实现可持续和高效的飞行。尽管近年来电池领域有了很多创新，但目前可用的技术意味着，飞行每一分钟，空中出租车就需要在地面上再充电一分钟。这导致低利用率和更高的成本。我们提出了一种新的电源，使用最好的电池，并将它们与氢燃料电池联合收割机结合起来。这种新的电力架构可以将充电时间缩短到几分钟，并使空中出租车更有利可图，对客户来说更实惠。
