This document summarizes George Bye's presentation on hybrid/electric propulsion systems for general aviation aircraft. Bye has over 20 years of experience in aviation and is the CEO of an energy technology company. He discusses the benefits of electric propulsion systems, including improved efficiency and reduced fuel costs and emissions. The technology overview outlines improvements in battery, motor, and charging technologies that are bringing electric propulsion within reach for small aircraft under 250 horsepower. Bye's company is developing a hybrid electric propulsion system for certification and aims to have an all-electric certified aircraft within 5 years. Adoption of these technologies could significantly reduce operating costs for aircraft owners and training schools.
