Infrastructure for the future of aviation
Our aim is to help speed up the commercialisation of sustainable aviation solutions, including electric aircraft, hydrogen drivetrains, eVTOLs and drones. In Skellefteå we can offer testbeds, power supply, winter testing facilities, a droneport, academic research, funding support and much more.
Collaborate with Arctic Aviation Hub
With three locations in Skellefteå and strong support from local partners, Arctic Aviation Hub can offer unique infrastructure for the development of drones, eVTOLs, battery- and hydrogen aircraft and supporting infrastructure.
We are both a place to test and develop but also a place for early commercial implementation. We can cover many of the necessary areas in the development of new technologies and we are probably one of the best places in the world to do winter testing.

Important Step Towards Increased Diversity in the Aviation Industry
Arctic Aviation Hub has recently become a member of the global organization Women in Aviation International (WAI). Through this membership, we strengthen our efforts to increase diversity and inspire more women to get involved in the aviation industry – a sector that is still predominantly male.
