Cell Siders Podcast Episode 8 - Fly Like an E-gull: A Conversation With Shashank Sripad
In this episode we talk with Shashank Sripad, a Ph.D candidate at Carnegie Mellon University, about his work on electric aviation and lithium-ion batteries for EVTOL applications. He explains the benefits of electric propulsion for aircraft, reveals why energy density is not the most important factor for urban air mobility, and tells us what the companies in the space are doing to develop new battery technologies... or rather, what they aren't doing.
