UKRI’s Advanced Air Mobility Demand Assessment Report
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) engaged EAMaven to analyze 20 potential routes across the #UK to assess the viability of advanced air mobility (#AAM) in the UK and chose 14 electric conventional take-off and landing (#eCTOL) and six #eVTOL routes.
Using a range of data sources and a bespoke AAM demand model, EAMaven determined the number of passengers who would switch from traditional road and rail modes of travel to AAM services.
It identified 390 potential routes with one airport having 28 routes which include both eVTOL and eCTOL routes, and estimated that over five million passengers per week could travel on these services where a large proportion of them would come from people traveling by car, helping to decarbonize regional travel in the UK.
