Multi-disciplinary clusters of academics worldwide are the engine room for many of the key areas of technology advancement underpinning the development of electric aircraft. One such research and development hub is the University of Maryland's A. James Clark School of Engineering, where associate professor Anubhav Datta is leading a team developing new approaches to lightweight electrical storage to go on board aircraft. His team is focused on fields such as new advanced chemistries for batteries and hydrogen fuel cells, as this article published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers explains.
