Embraer and Eve sign MoU with Groupe ADP for Paris-Le Bourget Airport

Our Bureau - : May 20, 2024 - : 8:07 pm

Embraer, Eve Air Mobility and Groupe ADP (Aéroport de Paris) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that focuses on innovation and sustainable development, aiming to prepare the future of low-carbon aviation in and around the Airport of Paris-Le-Bourget.

The MoU strengthens Embraer’s operations and its facility at Paris-Le Bourget airport, Europe’s leading business aviation airport. It covers the creation of new capabilities to enhance Embraer’s aircraft maintenance operations, to prepare for the future Energia family, and to support the development of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operations with eVTOLs.

As part of this plan, Embraer Services & Support intends to design and then transfer its current facilities to a new maintenance building to optimize its capacity, while aiming for the most advanced standards in low-carbon construction and energy self-sufficiency. The new aircraft maintenance facility is expected to more than double the unit’s capacity.

For Eve, the company intends to work with Groupe ADP to prepare the necessary environment for eVTOL operations, including service and support activities such as training, maintenance, ground handling services, and facilitate potential demonstration flights for public-private initiatives.

Groupe ADP intends to provide its expertise to support future operations of the Energia aircraft family at Paris-Le Bourget, with the study of a hydrogen infrastructure. Embraer’s Energia program was updated last year with two concept aircraft models of 19 and 30 seats, with hybrid-electric and hydrogen-electric propulsion.
