Leaders in propulsion tech

Mission
World-class decarbonised aircraft manufacturing and passenger experience
Flying is the most carbon-intensive mode of transport; however, there are currently few viable zero-emission options for aircraft. We are currently developing advanced emission-free solutions to transition the complex and highly regulated aerospace industry, a process that will take time.
Our team has worked on leading electric aircraft programs worldwide. Based on our practical experience with the alternatives, Stralis concludes that hydrogen-electric propulsion is the most commercially viable, and truly sustainable technology. We have come together to deliver what we believe will be the solution.
