Swiss battery company H55 has joined Harbour Air and Magnix in an effort to develop and certificate an all-electric De Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver seaplane.
The project is already well under way, with Harbour Air, a Canadian commuter airline based near Vancouver, having flown a demonstrator all-electric Beaver for the first time in late 2019. That aircraft is powered by Magnix’s Magni500 electric propulsion system.
