Bevirt: Doubling battery density roughly triples eVTOL flight range
“Well, it's even more than that because you hold a lot of the energy and reserve for contingencies. You don't need to increase the amount of reserve that you hold. And so if you double the energy in the battery, you're actually probably getting three times the …”
Bevirt: Battery density reached 300 Wh/kg with 1,000 Wh/kg prototypes coming
“So at that point in time, we were 40 to 50 watt hours a kilogram. Now we're more than 300 watt hours a kilogram, and there's cells in the lab that are up to 500 watt hours a kilogram, and prototypes coming that are over a thousand watt hours.”
