GE Aerospace and the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU), to explore opportunities to collaborate on research and development for next generation aerospace technologies, materials and manufacturing processes.
GE has outlined one of its most extensive technology demonstration roadmaps in company history, through multiple programs to advance open fan engine architecture, hybrid electric propulsion systems, compact core, thermal management, and more. Not only is GE continuing to develop more efficient aircraft engine technology, but it is also supporting engine compatibility with alternative fuels.
“We look forward to continued discussion with the National Research Council of Canada on collaboration opportunities,” said Mohamed Ali, vice president of engineering for GE Aerospace.
