GE Aerospace's hybrid-electric turbofan passes ground tests, exceeds NASA power-transfer benchmarks

GE Aerospace completed first ground tests of a turbine-based hybrid-electric turbofan at its Peebles, Ohio test site, demonstrating power-transfer capabilities that exceeded NASA technical benchmarks. The result advances turbofan–electric system integration for potential narrowbody application in the 2030s.
