The 787 battery contract was signed in 2005, [27] when LiCoO 2 batteries were the only type of lithium aerospace battery available. Still, since then, newer and safer [ 28 ] types (such as LiFePO 4 ) and LiMn 2 O 4 (lithium manganate), which provide less reaction energy during thermal runaway , have become available.

As the energy density of lithium-ion batteries is much lower than aviation fuel, a hybrid electric powertrain may effectively increase flight range compared to pure electric aircraft. By May 2018, there were over 30 hybrid electric aircraft projects, and short-haul hybrid-electric airliners were envisioned from 2032.
