About Dovetail Electric Aviation

Dovetail Electric Aviation is an innovative Australian technology company founded in 2020, focused on converting legacy combustion aircraft into zero-emission electric models.

The company aims to lead the regional and general aviation industry towards sustainability by enabling operators to fly commercially viable routes using battery and hydrogen fuel cell propulsion systems. Dovetail is unique in its ability to retrofit Cessna 208 aircraft into battery-electric models and is developing a hydrogen-electric system for the Beechcraft King Air. The company offers electric conversion integration technology, which includes its proprietary DovePower electric propulsion system and the DovePackTM immersion-cooled battery system. Dovetail's solutions are designed for regional airlines, leisure flights, and cargo transport, targeting a global market with a strong presence in Europe, Australia, and Spain. With a mission to reduce aviation's carbon footprint, Dovetail aims to lower operating costs significantly and is preparing for its first flight in early 2025.
