Airbus and Siemens to begin building an electric passenger plane

Aircraft Concern «Airbus» and the German company «Siemens» will begin joint development of electric aircraft.

It became known yesterday, and, as noted by the representatives of both companies, thanks to the agreements reached, attempts will be made in the next few years to create a full passenger aircraft hybrid-electric type, which will reduce emissions into the environment, and reduce the cost of air travel.

According to experts, the first results of joint cooperation will most likely be presented by 2020, and if they satisfy both sides, then by 2030 serial production of electric passenger aircraft may begin, capable of carrying up to a hundred passengers on board at distances of about 2 -2,5 thousand kilometers.
