Mission

Founded November 2021

"We revolutionise transportation by building a network of organisations dedicated to creating a value chain for electric flying."

By working together and building on the knowledge and experience of the electric car industry, we establish electric airlines, flying schools, and electric general aviation across Europe.

Why Electric Flying

The opportunity
in three numbers

Europe's regional aviation infrastructure is ready. The technology is proven. What's needed is the network to connect them — and that is exactly what EFC builds.

2,000+

Regional airports in Europe

Electric flying unlocks point-to-point travel between Europe's regional hubs — eliminating hub-and-spoke detours and reducing travel time significantly.

200–500 km

The sweet spot for electric

Current battery technology already covers the most-travelled short-haul distances. This is the segment where electric aviation is ready to compete today.

1,000 km

Within reach as technology scales

As batteries improve and renewable energy becomes more available, a significant share of fossil fuel flights under 1,000 km can be replaced by electric alternatives.

Vision

Electric flying as a mainstream option for regional travel

We envision a future where electric aviation is not a niche technology but a standard transportation option connecting Europe's regions sustainably and efficiently.

EFC understands that success requires close cooperation with the existing aviation industry. We do not replace — we connect and accelerate. Our six working groups cover the full value chain: from aircraft manufacturing and certification to infrastructure, training, and entrepreneurship.

Philosophy

Team. Vision.
