A hybrid propulsion system (100) can include a turbomachine (101) having a compressor (101a), a combustion chamber (101b), and a compressor turbine (101c)). The compressor can be connected to the compressor turbine via a first shaft (103). The system can include a hybrid drive assembly (105) which can include a power turbine (105a) in fluid communication with an outlet of the compressor turbine to be driven by compressor turbine exhaust to drive a second shaft (107) that is disconnected from the first shaft. The hybrid drive assembly can also include an electrical machine (105b) mechanically coupled to the second shaft either to convert rotational energy to electrical energy or to convert electrical energy to rotational energy of the second shaft.
