Navigating Supply Chain Challenges in the eVTOL Industry

An electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicle is a battery-powered aircraft that takes off vertically and is expected to be used for both cargo delivery and passenger transportation. Organizations like NASA believe that eVTOL vehicles will help meet the rising demand for air transportation over the coming decades while enabling the aviation industry to continue its efforts to reduce carbon emissions and reach carbon neutrality. While traditional vertical takeoff and landing vehicles have relied on complex internal combustion machines and mechanical arrangements, eVTOLs have simpler propulsion units that present many advantages and opportunities.
