However, most air taxis are projected to be bigger than most cars and cannot just land on streets or lawns. AAM will require its own infrastructure to provide places to land, recharge, and take off from. These places will be known as vertiports, but what exactly will they look like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this episode, Todd Tuthill, Vice President of A&amp;D for Siemens Digital Industries Software, is joined by John Nixon, Vice President of Energy, Chemicals, and Infrastructure for Siemens Digital Industries Software. Together, they discuss what vertiports are, their interactions with the energy grid, and how sustainability plays a factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In this episode, you will learn:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How vertiports can support AAM fleets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How much impact on the electric grid vertiports would have<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why the method of powering vertiports matters to sustainability<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AAM\u2019s impact on noise pollution<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"bio-block row\">\n    <div class=\"col-3 order-first bio-pic\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2024\/04\/todd_new_200.jpg\" alt=\"Todd Tuthill - Speaker\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col-9 bio-info\">\n        <div class=\"bio-header\">\n            <h4 class=\"speakerintro\">Todd Tuthill &#8211;
