HECATE
HECATE (Hybrid Electric Regional Aircraft Distribution Technologies) aims to deliver transformative technologies considering HVD for the electrical distribution of hybrid electric regional aircraft.
HECATE develops critical technologies for high-power, high-voltage and certifiable electrical distribution architectures capable of enabling hybrid-electric propulsion for regional platforms. The technology enablers at TRL5 in hybrid-electric propulsion for regional platforms can impact other aerospace domains such as UAM, SMR. Such architectures will drive the reduction of aircraft greenhouse gases toward the objectives of -30% net GHG emission reduction by 2035 and zero emissions by 2050.
Within the program, TEMAI works on two technologies. The first is related to the primary distribution source, where we are responsible for the device that detects insulation failure on high-voltage lines. In this part, the main responsible party is SAFRAN.
The second technology involves the implementation of a system for detecting continuous electric arcs in a power line. In this area, we work together with ADS and Carlos III University of Madrid.
