  • Summary

  • Advanced air mobility is a new classification of aircraft that offers new ways to transport cargo and passengers across short distances in forms such as air taxis. However, most air taxis are projected to be bigger than most cars and cannot just land on streets or lawns. AAM will require its own infrastructure to provide places to land, recharge, and take off from. These places will be known as vertiports, but what exactly will they look like? In this episode, Todd Tuthill, Vice President of A&D for Siemens Digital Industries Software, is joined by John Nixon, Vice President of Energy, Chemicals, and Infrastructure for Siemens Digital Industries Software. Together, they discuss what vertiports are, their interactions with the energy grid, and how sustainability plays a factor. In this episode, you will learn: How vertiports can support AAM fleets How much impact on the electric grid vertiports would have Why the method of powering vertiports matters to sustainability AAM’s impact on noise pollution Connect with Todd Tuthill: LinkedIn Connect with John Nixon: LinkedIn Connect with Patty Russo: LinkedIn Resources: Siemens Aerospace & Defense website
