Electrify & Decarbonize Air Traffic

- REGISTRATION PLEASE REGISTER BY LATEST 12.09.2025
Decarbonizing transport is a key pillar for a sustainable energy transition.
This also challenges the air transport industry, where efficiency, high energy density at low weight storage and safety face an accentuated importance.
Visit the pioneers of small airplane electrification that are meeting yearly in Bern Airport and show us how we are just in front of a take-off into electrified airplanes. The event consists of a symposium, an exhibition, demo flights, passenger flights you can buy (or win with Electrosuisse for NGN/WIE), the inflight competition “eTrophy” and a small food truck area to recharge your own batteries.
CIGRE Switzerland will be on site with various experts, Swiss NC/SC and also WIE/NGN representatives and members, which on top gives you the opportunity to have informal talks with our national CIGRE organisation.
You find the detailed program – that usually gets published on rather short notice in detail, but is really worth it – towards early September on the event website www.electrifly-in.ch/en/programme where we recommend you to subscribe to the newsletter (bottom area)
Please also register at CIGRE Switzerland to get more information prior to the event.
