The Dutch airport of Groningen will become Electron Aviation’s first operational airport to use electric air taxis. The air taxi service will use 100% electric Electron 5 aircraft, which carry up to four passengers. The air taxis have a range of 750 km from Groningen Airport which covers destinations such as Copenhagen, Frankfurt, Hannover, London and Paris.
The agreement to use Groningen Airport as a hub for air taxis was signed by both parties during the Hydrogen Valley Aviation event, part of the Wind meets Gas symposium. Meiltje de Groot, director of Groningen Airport: “We are very enthusiastic about the collaboration which brings us one step closer to offering emission free flight for everyone.” Josef Mouris, CEO of Electron Aviation added: “Our range of air taxis offers easier travel options to and from Groningen Airport at a competitive price together with zero emissions.”
