Parker Meggitt, a business segment of Parker Hannifin Corporation, a global leader in motion and control technologies, has announced a partnership with Airbus to develop an energy buffer (eBuffer) in support of the ZEROe aircraft demonstrator.
Parker Meggitt is working with Airbus to build energy storage equipment that will support electric propulsion. The eBuffer will maximize safety, efficiency and weight while balancing electric and mechanical constraints. The eBuffer will be an important piece of the electrical system that will complement the fuel cell primary power source and therefore will be one of the integral components of the Airbus ZEROe demonstrator aircraft.
