  • The project is funded by a grant of more than GBP 550,000 from Innovate UK.
  • Greenjets leads a consortium with Bramble Energy, TOffeeAM and Aurata Technologies.
  • The 18-month programme targets ground and flight testing of an integrated hydrogen propulsor.

Greenjets supplies electric propulsion systems for drones, eVTOL aircraft and uncrewed aviation platforms. Its ducted-fan technology is now also tied to UK MoD-backed low-cost drone-interceptor work, with a July 2026 $40 million Series A supporting production scale-up.
