Kevin Noertker is the Co-Founder and CEO of Ampaire, a developer of Hybrid Aviation Propulsion Systems to Decarbonize Air Travel Today.
Currently they are scaling up their tech. Their tech is proven to reduce fuel usage by about 50% for small aircrafts (anything with a propeller).
Today, Kevin shares his story and we discuss:
- Aerospace Engineer to Ampaire: His story of co-founding Ampaire.
- Addressing Existing Stock: Electric aircraft is the future, but their solution helps address the existing stock of aircraft.
- Bridging the Infrastructure Gap: How fully electric air travel will require massive infrastructure upgrades, so they are building a solution that will work in between.
Enjoy today's conversation!
