Public transportation in Ireland could be significantly enhanced by new urban and regional air services, according to a new study produced by the Future Mobility Campus Ireland (FMCI) and the Electric Aviation Maven consultancy. The partners published their report on Thursday during the Irish Business and General Aviation Association conference, highlighting how new eVTOL and electric- and hybrid-electric fixed-wing aircraft could provide new options for commuting, as well as for wider business and leisure travel.
“Ireland offers a unique opportunity for eVTOL OEMs and operators who will be able to access a market of 89 million travelers annually seeking to undertake business or access diverse historical, cultural, and leisure opportunities across the country,” said EA Maven co-founder Darrell Swanson. “With a potential economic impact of €96 million [$101 million] in time savings from urban air mobility alone, the opportunity is significant.”
