H55 is a Swiss company pioneering electric propulsion systems for aircraft, from energy storage to battery management. Founded in 2017, they operate across Switzerland, Canada, and France. With roots in the groundbreaking Solar Impulse project, H55’s technology promises to help to decarbonize air transport. H55’s vision is for a cleaner, quieter, more efficient aviation industry.

We head inside H55’s headquarters in Sion, Switzerland with co-founder Gregory Blatt. He tells us more about their B23 aircraft, a two-seater training aircraft powered by electric propulsion. Gregory also explains how PTC’s Codebeamer software allows H55 to ensure compliance and scalability.
