  • GE Aerospace completed a ground test of a megawatt-class hybrid electric engine system under NASA’s EPFD project, clearing a path toward flight tests.
  • Test validated a fully integrated hybrid-electric powertrain, including motor-generators, power electronics, propeller, gearbox, and a CT7 engine.
  • Campaign simulated taxi, takeoff, climb, and cruise; system powered the propeller and generated electricity to recharge the battery.
  • Work supports the CFM RISE technology program, targeting more than 20% better fuel burn versus current in-service commercial engines.
  • RISE has logged more than 350 tests and more than 3,000 endurance cycles; hybrid-electric technologies are moving toward ground and flight tests this decade.
