A P&WC engine and a Collins electric motor of 1 megawatt will be combined in a parallel hybrid configuration with a 50/50 power split on one side of an experimental De Havilland Dash 8–100 aircraft. The motor by Collins has a high-power density and efficiency. The program is aiming for a 30% increase in fuel efficiency and correspondingly lower CO2 emissions. The fuel-burning engine will be able to be optimized *Electrification for Aero-Engines: A Case Study of Modularization in New Product… DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.109006*

for cruise efficiency because the electric motor will provide additional power during take-off and climb. Additionally, the new technology will be constructed to operate entirely on Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) (**Figure 9**).
