Development of an electric propulsion system with range extender and conversion of a Britten Norman Islander flying demonstrator to electric power, enabling full flight certification for commercial service.This aircraft is used for vital services to isolated communities. Converting to electric power will not only ensure the continuance of a critical lifeline but also the reduction of local carbon emissions and increase in the use of renewable energy.This project will enable the first passenger-carrying aircraft capable of all-electric flight, attracting investment from across the globe to the UK, boosting jobs and the UK's standing in the global aerospace industry.

开发了一种带有增程器的电力推进系统，并将一架布里顿诺曼岛民飞行演示机转换为电力，使其能够获得商业服务的全面飞行认证。这架飞机用于向偏远社区提供重要服务。转换为电力不仅可以确保关键生命线的延续，还可以减少当地的碳排放，增加可再生能源的使用。该项目将使第一架能够全电动飞行的飞机成为可能，吸引来自地球仪的投资，增加就业机会，提高英国在全球航空航天业的地位。
