Aircraft electric power distribution systems and methods of operating aircraft electrical power distribution systems are provided. One such method comprises determining a measure of an electrical power demand of a power and propulsion system of the aircraft; setting a target operating voltage of the aircraft electrical power distribution system based at least in part on the measure of the electrical power demand; and controlling the operating voltage in accordance with the set target operating voltage. In some embodiments the measure of the electrical power is a measure of an operating parameter of a gas turbine engine or propulsor of the aircraft.
