Schindler and team Solar Impulse shared the same entrepreneurial spirit. Both parties are preoccupied with the same important question: How can we be mobile while reducing carbon footprint? Schindler supports sustainable urban development with safe, reliable and ecologically sound mobility solutions that move over one billion people every day, all over the world. We were a main partner of Solar Impulse because it was one of the most inspiring clean-tech projects in the world today. We strongly believe in investing in renewable technologies while maintaining our desire to create and innovate.  

By embedding our engineers in the Solar Impulse project, Schindler contributed to a unique scientific collaboration. The insights gained from developing lighter, more robust materials and improved propulsion efficiency will be applied to Schindler’s own future technologies.
