Recent studies show that large electric aircraft are feasible with significantly more near-term battery technology than previously thought. In this study we assess the battery performance metrics required for such aircraft and compare them to other electric aircraft and EVs, and investigate the battery production volumes required for different scenarios of market penetration of electric aircraft.
