They will explore the feasibility of eVTOL operations between the Danish island of Funen and the south-eastern islands of the region, improving connectivity for local communities
Madrid-headquartered electric mobility solutions provider Crisalion Mobility has signed a strategic agreement with Copenhagen Helicopter, a Danish firm specialising in advanced air mobility services (AAM) and the provision of related infrastructure and logistics. The agreement will also pave the way for exploring new joint business opportunities in third-party projects.
The two companies will analyse and develop plans that include passenger and cargo transport solutions, as well as the management of infrastructure needed to facilitate AAM services.
One of the main focuses of this collaboration will be to analyse the feasibility of future eVTOL operations between Danish island Funen and some of the country’s south-eastern islands, improving connectivity for local communities. This initiative aims to provide residents of the area with a sustainable, fast and efficient transport alternative, improving their access to essential services and promoting economic development in these areas.
“At Crisalion Mobility we are motivated to join forces with companies like Copenhagen Helicopter, which enrich our journey towards the transformation of advanced air mobility. This agreement allows us to explore different scenarios in which to improve our operations and anticipate future demands related to the way people move between local communities,” said Manuel Heredia, CEO of Crisalion Mobility.
Martin W Andersen, CEO of Copenhagen Helicopter, explained that his company has been monitoring more than 1,000 global AAM projects, gathering data and knowledge. Based on their findings, Copenhagen Helicopter has selected a handful of aircraft projects to cooperate with.
“We find the choice of technologies that Crisalion works with in the air and on the ground very interesting. We have confidence in Crisalion’s business model and approach, and we believe its holistic approach to combining land and air transportation can contribute to an efficient AAM in Denmark, where increasing population growth also brings more congestion on the roads,” Andersen said.
