Finnair has signed a Letter of Interest with Heart Aerospace for up to twenty ES-19s. If delivered, the aircraft will become part of the airline's plan to halve its CO2-emissions by 2025 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2045.
The ES-19 is a 19-seat electric engined turboprop that will have a range of up to 400 kilometres. The Gothenburg-based company is currently working on the first prototype and hopes to be able to deliver the first ES-19 to a customer in 2026.
Finnair is part of the Nordic Network of Electric Aviation (NEA), which has been working closely with Heart Aerospace. Other members of the NEA are Air Greenland, BRA, Icelandair and SAS.
