Aerovolt

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 […]

The Aerovolt team, (left to right) Guy Haydon, Alan KD and Phil KD, alongside Francois Randin and Laura Leoncini from EATON, met in Lausanne Switzerland last week to discuss and workshop the next steps for the smart charger rollout in the UK and beyond. More news on this to come in the next few weeks.

The installation of the Dunkeswell site starts on the 23rd November, however we can announce that we will be also installing 4x Aerovolt destination car chargers in the car park. Utilising the UKs first multi-purpose battery storage system from Allye. The Dunkeswell site has limited grid availability but we have been working on solving the […]

Last week the Aerovolt team met legendary Swiss Explorer Raphael Domjan and his Solar Stratus project at Payerne Airport. An electric solar aircraft intent on flying to the edge of space. The Aerovolt name may have a place on the aircraft soon!

Aerovolt will be attending Aviation Live this year at the Coin Street Conference Centre on 30th November. The charging and management systems will be on display at the event.

We are appearing as the odd ones out at this years EV Summit 2023. Showcasing the smart aircraft charging system along side the Squadron management software at the annual event at Oxford University on 30th – 31st October.

We can confirm that Dunkeswell will join the AeroVolt network with an installed planned this November. The install will also see the first of a new type of battery storage system deployed on a UK airfield for electric aircraft charging.

Fareham Council have given go ahead for the installation at Lee-on-Solent airport. We are expecting the install to take place at the end of October. Further to that, Hentsridge will also be joining the network with an install expected in early to mid-November.
