This work introduces a framework for the sizing of a system for on-site energy generation and storage in support of electric flight operations for a regional aviation network. Specifically, it shows how the properties of the flight network can be leveraged for strategic sizing, highlighting airport specific requirements that arise from considering the air transport and energy system as a whole.
