International Conference On Electric Airships - Decarbonizing Aviation
10033
Flexible thin-film solar cells, highly efficient power electronics, and lightweight batteries enable the construction of a new generation of airships. This includes drones, high altitude airships, and airships for cargo and passenger transport. In particular, airships can be used in the future for:
- transport to remote areas
- sustainable cargo transport
- transport of heavy loads
- sustainable passenger transport
- monitoring and surveillance of e.g. pipelines, high power transmission lines
- provision of telecom and internet connections
- tourism transport, recreation, and sightseeing
- humanitarian aid, disaster relief
The conference covers technical aspects as well as applications and environmental aspects.
Conference Topics:
- Construction and design of airships
- Construction of low and high altitude drones
- Sustainable aviation by airships
- Power electronics and batteries for airships
- Solar energy for airships
- Application of airships
- Usage of hydrogen as energy source and lifting gas
- Certification, regulation and integration in existing aerospace
- Infrastructure, ground handling of airships
