OATS
The OATS (Open Area Test Site) project aimed to investigate the possibilities of establishing a testbed in Skellefteå concerning electromagnetic compatibility, including electric aircraft.
The tests were conducted at Skellefteå Airport, and it is where a potential new test site could be located.
"As far as we know, there is no such test site in an airport environment, making this quite unique," says Jonny Johansson, professor in Electronics Systems.
There has been ongoing work in Skellefteå to establish the town and the airport as a development site for the electrification of aviation. Jonny Johansson, along with project partners, has played a key role in providing the basis for establishing a testbed for EMC in the airport environment.
"Not only can this lead to increased investment in electrified aviation and green flight, but it can also become a bridge and resource for the long-established cold climate vehicle testing operations in northern Sweden," says Jonny Johansson.
