Ampaire
Electric power promises a cleaner, more affordable future for air transportation. Ampaire has developed and is flying the AMP Drive system in multiple hybrid-electric aircrafts. They’re the leader in hybrid-electric with over 22,000 miles flown across their fleet and with a 100% safety record. They will be the first to reach mass market with hybrid-electric technology, leading the industry to a sustainable future.
Ampaire is working to create the first propulsion systems to power hybrid-electric aircraft.
Ampaire was formed in 2016 with a mission to become the world's most-trusted developer of practical, compelling electric aircraft. They’ve developed a platform of hybrid electric and electric propulsion technologies applicable across numerous aircraft types. Upgrading existing aircraft to hybrid electric power is Ampaire’s rapid, capital efficient approach to making commercial electric air travel a reality with available technology.

What You Can Do
Travel and transportation make up 15% of global emissions. 70% is from vehicles and 12% comes from air travel, so staying closer to home can have a massive impact. A 6+ hour flight has nearly the same per-person carbon emissions as driving for a year, so consider taking local vacations to reduce long flights until hybrid-electric planes are ready for boarding.
