In an effort to decarbonize, airlines are focusing most of their attention on sustainable aviation fuel, but Heart Aerospace believes the key to decarbonizing regional air travel is through electrification. In this episode of Bloomberg Intelligence’s ESG Currents podcast, Heart Aerospace Cofounder and Chief Executive Officer Anders Forslund joins BI director of ESG research Eric Kane to discuss the future of aviation. They discuss Heart’s founding, key partnerships and value proposition, as well as the next steps for the company’s ES-30 aircraft, which can fly 30 passengers and has an electric range of 200 kilometers.
