Drone delivery offers the potential to transport loads of 1 kg to 10 tons or more over both short (last mile, Urban Air Mobility) and long distances, either on routes that are unfeasible / uneconomical for other modes of transport or that offer new business opportunities.
For this reason, Elena Patatouka from Trikala, Greece presented the demonstration of drone deliveries currently ongoing in at that city as part of the local HARMONY’s activities promoting urban and regional air mobility. She also gave an overview of the other project demonstrations of planned in 2022, where top-tier industrial companies are involved, such as Airbus, Arrival, and GRIFF Aviation are involved.
The overall panel was as follows:
UIC2 Panel – Sustainable Urban (Air) Mobility Plan
ADW Mainstage · Urban Air Mobility
HARMONY intends to set a benchmark for public-private cooperation in Spatial and Transport planning capable to lead a sustainable transition to a low-carbon new mobility era in European metropolitan areas.
