Amazing stuff! This is dated news from about April of this year.
"SiriNor tests emission-free electric jet engine in India
SiriNor has completed ground testing of its emission-free electric jet engine in Pune, India. The engine, developed by the India-Norway-based startup, reached over 40,000 RPM and delivered 10 kilogram-force thrust, surpassing its design goals. SiriNor plans to commercialize the engine for unmanned aerial vehicles by mid next year, seaplanes by 2027 and regional aircraft by 2030."
"Startup SiriNor just completed ground testing of its revolutionary emission-free electric jet engine, which could change the entire air travel industry.
The company, based in India and Norway, conducted the groundbreaking test in Pune, India, ET Travel World reported in April. The engine achieved Technology Readiness Level 6 (TRL6) based on NASA's framework.
When it clocked over 40,000 RPM and generated 10 kilogram-force thrust, it exceeded its design specifications. This validates its performance under controlled lab conditions, and its scalable architecture makes it versatile.
The engine eliminates combustion, reducing manufacturing costs by 30% and requiring up to 40% less maintenance. ..."
