By Didier-François Godart on ParisTech Review

Confrontée à une hausse des coûts du kérosène et à une pression toujours plus forte sur les émissions de gaz à effets de serre, l'industrie aéronautique mise aujourd’hui sur l'électrification des avions. C'est une petite révolution technologique, qui affecte aussi l'organisation des groupes aéronautiques. Mais au fait, de quoi s'agit-il précisément ?
Facing rising kerosene costs and an ever increasing pressure on CO2 emissions, the aviation industry is betting on electrification. But what will truly be electric in tomorrow's aircrafts? Though the changes may mainly affect the secondary energy sources on board, this is a technological revolution, driving a major overhaul in the management of aircraft manufacturers.
