Schindler is one of four main partners who have joined forces to develop the Solar Impulse - a revolutionary aircraft that only relies on sunlight for power. With its impressive wingspan of an Airbus A340, but less than 100 times the weight, the Solar Impulse is a game changer in modern aviation. As mankind’s future depends on using clean, sustainable energy from renewable sources, this project has the potential to take the airplane industry beyond 21st century designs.
The Solar Impulse is scheduled to circle the globe in a non-stop flight without fuel in 2014.
