Thomas Seiler

Thomas's career has spanned from Swisscom, where he was a research engineer for communications, to Solar Impulse where he was Head of Energy and Propulsion and responsible for all electrical systems on board the SI-2 solar powered aircraft that flew around the world, and finally to Swiss Hydrogen, where he integrated hydrogen range extender systems into electric vehicles. He has designed, built, integrated, and certified a wide range of systems including battery management, telemetry, hydrogen power, and actuation. The knowledge that Thomas brings, especially with his knowledge from Solar Impulse where he was responsible for building systems for a manned aircraft that can stay in flight for days and nights as it circumnavigates the world, accelerate the development of the electric power, propulsion and avionics systems needed for their electric VTOL aircraft.
