Crisalion Mobility, a Spanish electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft producer, will work with Swedish company Kookiejar to develop vertiports.
The joint collaboration will seek to identify potential synergies between Crisalion Mobility’s eVTOL Integrity and Kookiejar vertiports, analyzing the efficiency of operations at these facilities. These operations will include freight transport, medical emergencies and urban, regional and tourism missions.
The companies will also cooperate to create an action plan and roadmap, setting out a series of shared goals which will be instrumental in the joint project efforts.
The agreement will also focus heavily on developing strategies to minimize the environmental footprint, enhance turnaround efficiency and comply with sustainability standards. Joint training programs will be rolled out for the teams at the two companies, and research will be undertaken into future technologies to further enhance the efficiency and safety of air mobility operations in relation to the project.
The partnership between Crisalion Mobility and Kookiejar demonstrates the ongoing expansion and development of air mobility in urban settings. It also forecasts an array of possibilities for the integration of aircraft into global transport infrastructure, ushering in a new era in urban air mobility.
Crisalion Mobility state that cooperation has proven to be key to creating sustainable, revolutionary solutions. Each of the two companies brings to the table its own unique experience in the development of innovative, safe solutions that will facilitate the effective implementation of vertiports all over the world.
Kim Silander, founder of Kookiejar, said; “This agreement represents a fusion of ideas and innovation. Air mobility technology is undergoing revolutionary change, and we are excited to be partnering with Crisalion Mobility to play a role in that transformation. Our highly complementary technical experience will allow us to design and build vertiports that comply with the strictest safety and efficiency standards.”
Óscar Lara Rapp, COO of Crisalion Mobility, added; “We continue to drive this fascinating project forward with new key partners. Working with Kookiejar will allow us to harness our shared technical experience and future outlook to deliver progress on safe, efficient vertiport development. Together, we are paving the way for air mobility that will transform cities and change people’s lives.”
