Care to share?

Embraer has got itself a new, influential member on board the Energia Advisory Group of sustainable aircraft for the future. American Airlines has signed a Memorandum of Understanding to join the group, which was established last year.

“The MoU with Embraer will see the companies working together to define and establish the real-world requirements for sustainable, emission-free, and commercially viable aviation,” Embraer says in a media statement about the role of American.

In November 2021, Embraer unveiled four Energia concept aircraft

designs for five to fifty passengers, using electric, hybrid-electric, and hydrogen propulsion systems. A year later in December 2022, Embraer narrowed the program down to two concepts for further study: a hybrid-electric aircraft for nineteen to thirty passengers available for market introduction in 2030, plus a hydrogen fuel-cell aircraft for the same number of passengers that should be available in 2035. A third concept with a hydrogen gas turbine engine is proposed for entry into service in 2040.
