The UK’s Reaction Engines has announced a joint venture to create compact, lightweight ammonia reactors it says can be used to decarbonize difficult sectors like shipping and off-grid energy generation – and surprisingly, also aviation.Continue Reading… Continue reading Reaction Engines assembles partners for its ammonia aviation project
US-based Wright Electric has announced a 100-seat electric short-hop aircraft slated to go into service by 2026. It’ll either be powered by hydrogen, or it’ll use recyclable metal in what the company calls an “aluminum fuel cell.”Continue ReadingCatego… Continue reading Wright proposes a 100-seat electric airliner powered by aluminum
HyPoint’s aviation-targeted fuel cells were already promising three times the power of a regular fuel cell by weight, but thanks to a new proton-conductive membrane developed in partnership with BASF, their power density is set to jump by another 50 pe… Continue reading New BASF membrane adds 50% more power to HyPoint hydrogen fuel cells
Hydrogen fuel cell innovator HyPoint has teamed up with Piasecki Aircraft on a headline project to build the world’s first manned hydrogen helicopter – but in the process, they plan to develop and certify a H2 system that can be integrated into any eVT… Continue reading Piasecki announces world-first hydrogen-electric compound helicopter
Universal Hydrogen has signed letters of intent with three airlines to convert more than 15 regional airliners to run on green hydrogen. The company is developing conversion kits that accept interchangeable hydrogen modules that work like recyclable co… Continue reading Universal Hydrogen to convert 15-plus airliners to run on H2 pods
German clean aviation companies H2Fly and Deutsche Aircraft are joining forces to develop a hydrogen-fuel-cell-powered airliner capable of carrying 40 people, with a demonstration aircraft set to take its first flights in 2025.Continue ReadingCategory:… Continue reading H2Fly and Deutsche Aircraft announce hydrogen-powered 40-seat airliner
Despite an abrupt and unscheduled ending to its six-seater test program, hydrogen aviation pioneer ZeroAvia is ramping up development of the largest fuel-cell-powered aircraft to date – a pair of 19-seaters – and is preparing for something much bigger…. Continue reading ZeroAvia presses ahead with two hydrogen-powered 19-seat aircraft
It’s going to take decades to get aviation, shipping and long-haul transport down to zero emissions. The technology is embryonic right now, and some of these big vehicles are still in service 30 years after they’re first delivered, so even once the tec… Continue reading Infinium’s electrofuels: An instant zero-carbon path for big transport
