A team of MIT engineers is developing a 1MW motor that could be a key stepping stone toward electrifying larger aircraft. No matter what we use as an energy carrier—batteries, hydrogen, ammonia, or sustainable aviation fuel—independent of all that, megawatt-class motors will be a key enabler for greening aviation.

Scaringe—a bespectacled mechanical engineer with a PhD from MIT—a billionaire by the age of 38. And unlike fossil-fueled 4x4’s, there are no mechanicals underneath that can get hung up or damaged by boulders or other obstacles, only a battery pack that’s protected by an aerodynamic sheet of composite armor.
