MARINA – Joby Aviation signed an agreement recently that would see the first electric air taxi charger installed at a California airport in anticipation of air taxi service in the greater Los Angeles area.
Joby has been developing electric air taxis for commercial passenger service and signed a definitive agreement with Clay Lacy Aviation to install the charger at John Wayne Airport in Orange County. In a press release from earlier this week, Joby announced the agreement and said the installation of electrical infrastructure to support Joby’s Global Electric Aviation Charging System comes as part of Clay Lacy’s planned $100 million redevelopment of its fixed-based operator terminal at Orange County airport, targeting completion by mid-2025.
