Credit: Wideroe Wideroe’s route network exemplifies the opportunity for all-electric commercial airline service: A flight from the Norwegian regional airline’s operational headquarters in Bodo to Leknes in the Lofoten Islands is shorter than 100 km (62 mi.). Another flight from Vardo to Tromso in northern Norway stops in Batsfjord, Berlevag and Hammerfest on the way—with some legs just about 30 mi. “Seventy-five percent of the routes we fly in this network are shorter than 300 km, and more than 50% [are] shorter than 200 km,” says Wideroe Chief Strategy Officer Andreas Aks. “Many are even shorter. It is a huge network with many very short routes.”
