Description: Electrification of aircraft engines will revolutionize the aviation industry.

To learn more about RTX's electrification of aircraft engines, <a href="https://www.rtx.com/who-we-are/we-are-rtx/rtx-big-questions/how-are-we-powering-electrified-aircraft?utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_source=ainonline&amp;utm_campaign=rtx-brand&amp;utm_content=bigquestions-electrified-aircraft">click here</a>.
Electrification of aircraft engines will revolutionize the aviation industry. Leading this transformation at Collins Aerospace is Bill Dolan, vice president of Engineering &amp; Technology for Power &amp; Controls. By applying hybrid-electric technologies for more electric power and using more electric systems, engine efficiency increases and fuel consumption decreases. This shift sets the stage for modern hybrid and all-electric engines, establishing new standards for modern aviation.
