Airbus has revealed that it is developing a hydrogen-powered fuel cell engine. The propulsion system is being considered as one of the potential solutions to equip its zero-emission aircraft that will enter service by 2035.
Airbus and ArianeGroup to work together to build the first liquid hydrogen refuelling facility for ZEROe aircraft at Toulouse Blagnac airport. The station will be operational in 2025.
Airbus has signed a partnership agreement with HyPort, a joint venture between ENGIE Solutions and the Regional Agency for Energy and Climate in Occitanie (AREC) to support the development of one of the world’s first low carbon hydrogen production and distribution stations at an airport.
Airbus and Renault Group have signed a research and development agreement to mature technologies associated with next-generation battery systems.
Hydrogen is key to bring zero-emissions aircraft to market by 2035, but it needs to be stored at an exceptionally chilly -253°C. To use this technology means developing innovative cryogenic hydrogen storage tanks.
An end to end liquid hydrogen aircraft fuel system demonstrator comprising liquid hydrogen fuelling, storage and cryogenic hydrogen conditioning apparatus. From concept to operation, the demonstrator was delivered within 12 months.
A decommissioned Airbus A320 is being given a new lease of life in the service of science.
For the first time, a Boeing 777-300ER operated by Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) took off on a passenger flight with the AeroSHARK surface technology jointly developed by Lufthansa Technik and BASF.
ZeroAvia continues to test its first Dornier 228 test bed, which is equipped with a hydrogen-electric powertrain that is performing high-speed track tests, while the company is making investments in fuel cell technology, including proton exchange membranes.
Ampaire is refining the aerodynamics of its family of electrically powered aircraft through a memorandum of understanding with Tamarack Aerospace Group. This agreement includes exclusive access to Tamarack's Smartwingô winglets on all alternative energy variants of the 208 Caravan, Twin Otter and King Air aircraft.
American Airlines has made an equity investment in Universal Hydrogen to help the company build a green hydrogen distribution and logistics network.
EHang's EH216 drone has been performing flight demonstrations in Spain as part of the EU project "Urban Air Mobility - Experimental Demonstration".
Delta Air Lines has invested $60 million in Joby Aviation, which is developing an eVTOL, an electrically powered air cab. The airline is prepared to raise up to $200 million as milestones are reached in the development of the service.
