A method for a hybrid electric propulsion (HEP) system includes determining a target fan speed for a HEP system. The HEP system includes a gas turbine engine and at least one electric motor configured to rotate a respective shaft of the gas turbine engine. The method also includes determining an amount of electrical power that is currently available to the HEP system; utilizing a model predictive control (MPC) to determine, based on the amount of available electrical power and a plurality of operating limits of the HEP system, an effector command set that includes a power splitting profile indicating a power split between the gas turbine engine and the at least one electric motor for achieving the target fan speed; and implementing the effector command set. A controller for a hybrid electric propulsion (HEP) system is also disclosed.
