The aviation industry currently contributes 12 percent of all U.S. carbon emissions and 4.9 percent globally, all while providing few low-cost, fuel-effi cient options for passenger fl ights under 1,000 miles. By modifying existing Harbour Air planes with innovative, all-electric magniX propulsion systems, the partnership will create the world’s fi rst completely electric commercial seaplane fl eet. A Harbour Air ePlane will have zero reliance on fossil fuels and produce zero emissions — a signifi cant step forward in the innovation and advancement of the airline industry. “In 2018, 75 percent of worldwide airline fl ights were 1,000 miles or less in range. With magniX’s new propulsion systems coupled with emerging battery capabilities, we see tremendous potential for electric aviation to transform this heavily traffi cked ‘middle mile’ range,” says Roei Ganzarski, CEO of magniX. “We’re excited to partner with Harbour Air, a forward-thinking, like-minded company that is dedicated to bringing environmentally conscious, cost- eff ective air-transport solutions to the West Coast of North America. This partnership will set the standard for the future of commercial aviation operators.”

de Havilland Beaver, a six-passenger commercial aircraft used across Harbour Air’s route network. Harbour Air and magniX expect to conduct fi rst fl ight tests of the all- electric aircraft in late 2019. This partnership follows signifi cant milestones for both companies, including the successful testing of magniX’s 350 HP all-electric motor and the addition of a Vancouver- to-Seattle route in Harbour Air’s destination roster.
