While we’re rapidly working to electrify the automotive industry, the airline industry remains a major source of air pollution worldwide. We desperately need alternatives to dirty jet fuel.
At first glance, Her0 looks like a futuristic super jet, built for speed and luxury. But beneath its streamlined, sculptural form lies a game-changing innovation—an all-electric passenger plane designed for efficiency, sustainability, and style.
Created by New York-based designer Joe Doucet, Her0 reimagines air travel with electric–powered rear propellers and sweeping wings that maximize lift while minimizing emissions.
Inspired by his own frequent short-haul flights, Doucet’s design aims to merge eco-conscious engineering with cutting-edge aesthetics.
While massive improvements in battery weight and efficiency need to happen before the Her0 takes flight, it’s a much needed design improvement, meant to spur the industry into action.
As the aviation industry moves toward a greener future, concepts like Her0 prove that sustainability and high design can soar together.

Although technology allows us to be more closely connected at a distance, family, friends and business often necessitate travel. Carbon emissions from plane travel, focused as they are in the upper atmosphere, are considered amongst the greatest contributors to global warming.
JDXP created a concept aircraft utilizing advances in electric engines, pioneered in the automotive industry, and further adapted for aviation. The plane’s innovative design and material composition work together to minimize weight and maximize aerodynamics, allowing the electric engines to achieve required minimums in distance and duration for flight times.
