powered by new technologies and renewable energies amid the backdrop of the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow, Scotland, which addressed what governments can do to avert the worst effects of climate change.Now, the company plans to focus on two 19-30 seater designs for hybrid electric and hydrogen electric propulsion.
The second concept is the Energia H2 Fuel Cell, which was put forward as a 19-seat option in 2021 and is now being explored as a 30-seater option. It boasts hydrogen electric propulsion, zero CO2 emissions, two seat variants , rear-mounted electric engines, and technology ready by 2035. In the company's President and CEO, Arjan Meijer, own words, “I believe we have set bold but realistic goals for these concepts to come to market. Since we announced our Energia concepts last year, we have been busy evaluating different architectures and propulsion systems."
"The 19 and 30 seaters are sensible starting points for focused studies since they are likely to present earlier technical and economical readiness,” said Luis Carlos Affonso, Sr. VP of Engineering, Technology and Corporate Strategy at Embraer.

IE needs to stick to proven scientific principles. Climate change is politically motivated, not real science.
