The true potential of VTOL aircraft lies in zero-emission propulsion with meaningful range and payloads. To achieve this, we believe H2 is the most practical solution having the highest specific energy density of 33kwh/kg which is 100X compared to batteries and 3X compared to jet fuel

At BluJ, we are developing a Hybrid H2 propulsion system combining our high-power density Li-ion battery with high-energy density fuel cell system and lightweight Type-IV H2 storage tanks. While these elements form the heart of our propulsion, a control module which is the brain, controls intelligent switching between battery and fuel cell to optimize power for various flight segments of a mission.

Our aircraft structures are built with 80% CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) by weight. CFRP has the highest strength to weight ratio and is at least 3X lighter compared to Aluminum.

End-to-end design and manufacturing of structures is done in-house giving us control over DFMA (Design for Manufacturing & Assembly), quality, timelines and cost of production.

BluJ is investing in designing light-weight power electronic units adopting the latest wide gap semiconductor technology. We are also building various avionic sub-systems such as Battery Management, Fuel cell Management and Flight control computers so we can vertically integrate key technologies in ensuring flight safety.

All of these systems are designed with the highest levels of reliability and multiple redundancy meeting global aviation standards.

Widespread adoption of VTOL aircraft depends on advancement of autonomous flight. A base level of autonomy is fundamental to our distributed propulsion architecture.

Our flight software is capable of working with multiple sensors and providing safety from various environmental elements such as adverse weather, collisions, communication privacy and interruptions.

BluJ Hop

Perfect for urban and regional use, BluJ’s VTOL minimizes noise while maximizing performance, setting a new benchmark for sustainable, commercially viable air transportation. We are building “Hop” a hydrogen-powered passenger VTOL. Built for long-range regional travel and high payload capacity, it delivers a quieter, cleaner, and safer flying experience. By optimizing range and efficiency, we ensure both environmental responsibility and better operational economics.
