CustomCells certifying its batteries for electric aviation, releases new whitepaper

May 19, 2024

CustomCells has announced it’s pursuing Design Organization and Production Organization certifications from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) to produce electric aviation batteries.

As a part of this, they released a new whitepaper that gives an overview of the future of electric aviation, and the crucial role that lithium-ion batteries will play in enabling this transformation.

You can download the whitepaper “The Enabler of eAviation: Advanced Batteries for a Cleaner Sky” here:

“The use of high-performance battery cells enables the next generation of flight – from electric vertical take-off and short take-off aircraft to conventional take-off and landing aircraft. For short distances, the first battery-electric aircraft of this type are already in the starting blocks, equipped with state-of-the-art battery cell technology from CustomCells – including Lilium and VÆRIDION, for example. This opens up a completely new segment of urban and regional mobility. Sustainable, digital and electrically powered eAviation offers innovative solutions for modern mobility requirements. CustomCells is driving this development forward with high-performance, German-engineered battery cells,” says Eric Swedersky, Senior Vice President Commercialisation at CustomCells.
