The sensitivity towards environmental aspects in aviation drove the application of novel powertrain configurations to reduce the fuel consumption and emissions. The paper present a multidisciplinary design process to evaluate the reduction of burnt fuel and emissions of a future hybrid-electric seaplane concept for two time horizons with increasing technological levels.
