Wright Electric Eyes New Headquarters in Saratoga County

MALTA — Wright Electric, a startup company poised to make a potent impact on the future of air travel, has decided to relocate their headquarters to the Saratoga Technology + Energy Park (STEP) in Malta. 

Founded in Boston in 2016, Wright Electric has sparked the interest of NASA, the US Department of Energy, the US Airforce and private entities alike. Their goal? Zero-emission commercial flights. According to their website, Wright plans to eliminate carbon emissions from all flights under 800 miles by 2040. In the immediate future, Wright Electric is aiming to tackle one-hour flights. Some of the routes they plan to make emission-less by 2026 are city pairs like London - Paris, New York – Boston and San Francisco – Los Angeles.
