H55 SA and Aerovolt UK Ltd have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to jointly advance electric aviation through pilot training and developing charging infrastructure.
The collaboration will focus on end-to-end electric pilot training, and will introduce new fully electric Private Pilot License (PPL) training programs with an expansive and reliable charging infrastructure across regional and local airports.

The companies aim to rapidly expand charging networks by deploying Aerovolt’s public electric aircraft charging stations, with 250+ sites under development worldwide, including the USA, Europe, and Australia. Both H55 and Aerovolt use the widespread Combined Charging System (CCS), facilitating quick and wide-spread adoption.
Additionally, the partnership will see the development of ‘Plug and Charge’ technology, featuring seamless software integration for hassle-free charging operations using Aerovolt’s Squadron proprietary aviation management system.
Under the collaboration, Aerovolt will acquire two BRISTELL B23 Energic aircraft powered by H55’s certified electric propulsion systems. These aircraft will play a key role in showcasing the feasibility of sustainable pilot training, and will be deployed in the UK at Devon and Somerset Flight Training, based at Dunkeswell Aerodrome and Squadron Flying Club.
H55 and Aerovolt are reportedly committed to working with airports, flight schools, civil aviation authorities, and local governments. By sharing data and insights, the companies aim unlock new opportunities for sustainable aviation, including cross-country pilot training programs and long-term partnerships with aviation stakeholders.
As part of its ‘Across America’ initiative, H55 will prominently feature Aerovolt’s innovative charging solutions. Aerovolt’s expertise in deploying reliable and scalable charging infrastructure will support H55’s efforts to demonstrate the feasibility of coast-to-coast electric aviation. Together, the two companies aim to showcase the seamless integration of electric propulsion and charging networks, accelerating the adoption of sustainable aviation across the United States.
Martin Larose, CEO of H55 SA, commented, “The future of aviation is electric, and this partnership ensures we are not just preparing for that future but actively building it. Electric aviation is no longer a concept; it’s a reality. By joining forces with Aerovolt, we’re tackling two of the biggest challenges—scalable charging infrastructure and accessible pilot training. Together, we’re laying the foundation for a greener and more sustainable aviation industry, not only in Europe but globally.”
Philip Kingsley-Dobson, Managing Director of Aerovolt UK Ltd, added, “Aerovolt is committed to making electric aviation a viable, everyday reality. By deploying H55-powered B23 Energic aircraft and integrating them into our network, we’re showcasing the future of pilot training and regional aviation.
“This partnership is about more than infrastructure—it’s about transforming the way the world thinks about sustainable aviation, from training pilots to empowering airports and aviation authorities. H55’s expertise in electric propulsion complements our charging solutions perfectly, and together, we are creating a roadmap for the next generation of aviation.”
