INVEST IN THE DUAL-USE TECHNOLOGY THAT’S REDEFINING WHAT’S POSSIBLE IN AEROSPACE

VerdeGo Aero’s hybrid-electric powerplants are revolutionizing military and commercial aviation, unlocking  new capabilities that battery-electric or hydrogen solutions simply cannot provide for sustainable and high performance flight. As aircraft manufacturers face the challenges of electrification, our hybrid solutions provide the missing link, offering extended range, increased payload, and mission flexibility — critical for military and commercial applications. From high-endurance military drones to vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) air taxis for short haul flights, VerdeGo Aero is enabling practical, scalable hybrid solutions for the entire aerospace industry.

 

Why Invest Now?

 

The Market is Set for Exponential Growth
  • $10B+ already invested across 400+ electric aircraft programs — from military drones to regional air mobility and air taxis.
  • Projected $27B+ annual electrified aircraft sales by 2032, creating massive demand for VerdeGo Aero’s reliable hybrid power solutions​.
  • The Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) market is projected to grow to $55B by 2032 as urbanization and traffic in major cities push leaders to identify new transportation solutions.

 

VerdeGo is Solving The Biggest Challenge in Aerospace Electrification
  • Electrification brings huge opportunities for flight, but it is all at risk due to battery technical limitations (high weight, short range, slow charge time) colliding with regulatory/safety realities.
  • We know electric motors enable new types of airplanes and missions, but batteries aren’t the answer. Hybrid power makes the huge investment in flight useful and practical.
  • We are trusted contractors for the U.S. Air Force and NASA to help bring new solutions for next-generation aircraft.

Aircraft electrification and the hybrid-electric power market

Investment opportunities in aircraft electrification and hybrid-electric propulsion systems and technologies start with knowing where the market is headed. VerdeGo Aero Co-Founder and CEO Eric Bartsch tells venture capital firm Balerion Space Ventures why large military drones are adopting hybrid-electric propulsion first and why mid-scale cargo is the commercial market most ready to buy. Small batches of VerdeGo Aero’s  non-certified hybrid-electric powerplants are already going into customers’ flight test aircraft, Bartsch says.
