Snowdonia Aerospace Centre, the UKs leading large scale drone and soon to be eVTOL testing facility have selected AEROVOLT to provide multiple charging systems for aircraft development and future flight technologies. At the beginning of March, AEROVOLT will install their certified smart charging system which uses the AS6968 protocol currently used by a number of […]

Charger No.6 has been installed at Henstridge today in Dorset/Somerset. An essential location for aircraft routing towards the West Country. This installation now allows electric flight from Lydd Airport (Kent), all the way to Dunkeswell Aerodrome (Devon) on the Southern area of the UK. A distance of 166Nm.

Aerovolt has started development work alongside a number of national air traffic system providers to bring new features to the electric aviation space, with support from the CAA Innovations Team. Further details about air traffic control integration with Aerovolt charging systems will be announced in a few weeks time.

Our first batch at destination chargers for electric cars have been installed at Dunkeswell Aerodrome. They will be connected and live in about a weeks time. Our next installation of both aircraft and car chargers is Hentsridge Airfield.

The UK CAA and Aerovolt will be holding workshops at Gatwick HQ later this December to look at current and future regulation in the electric aviation space. Covering topics such as air side safety, electrical installation standards, ground handling procedures, training, charger information management, ATIS upgrades and how commercial air side charging with Aerovolt chargers […]

We’ve started our Dunkeswell installation. The charger and battery system have been installed. Stage 2 involves installation of the car chargers and final commissioning of the system.

So we have finally completed our first test of the smart charging system with a real flight from Sandown Isle of Wight to Brighton City Airport. The goal, aside from re-positioning the aircraft, was to test the remote transaction logging of the charging sessions. After a couple of scripting tweaks, the system worked 100% as […]

We have finally got underway with our Dunkeswell and Hentsridge installs. At Dunkeswell a number of new concrete pads are being created for both aircraft and car charging. With an additional pad to house the Allye battery system. Our Hentsridge install coincides with a row of new hangars being erected on the site. Both chargers […]
