First electric business aircraft designed for hydrogen propulsion
Beyond Aero was founded to meet the challenges of climate change and is developing the first hydrogen-powered electric business aircraft.
The company is on a mission to make aviation electric, starting with business aviation since private jet are the most emissions-intensive segment per passenger, producing ten times more CO2 per person than commercial flights.
Beyond Aero has hit significant technical milestones, achieving France's first manned fully hydrogen-electric flight earlier this year and appointing Luiz Oliveira, former advisor on Embraer’s hybrid hydrogen program, as Chief Engineer. Beyond Aero has secured $914 million in Letters of Intent (LOIs) for 108 aircraft and earned multiple awards, including Brilliant Minds and the Sustainable Aviation Challenge by the World Economic Forum, joining the First Movers Coalition.
