Cryo-compressed hydrogen: A 40% aircraft range boost over liquid H2

ZeroAvia is working with San Francisco startup Verne to bring an even more energy-dense form of hydrogen to the clean aviation space. Cryo-compressed H2 could reduce costs, speed up fueling, and unlock 40% more flight range than cryogenic liquid H2.Con… Continue reading Cryo-compressed hydrogen: A 40% aircraft range boost over liquid H2

H2Fly’s twin-fuselage aircraft makes world-first liquid hydrogen flight

Taking off from Maribor, Slovenia, the modified double-fuselage Pipistrel Taurus G4 made a historic first piloted flight running on cryogenic liquid hydrogen

Liquid hydrogen is a giant pain to handle, but it’s one of the few technologies with a genuine chance of decarbonizing long-range flight. So it’s huge news for clean aviation that H2Fly has now landed the word’s first piloted liquid hydrogen flight.

H2Fly prepares for pioneering liquid hydrogen flight tests

Replacing the rich energy source of Jet-A kerosene with a zero-carbon alternative is no easy task for the aviation industry. There are “sustainable aviation fuels” made with captured carbon, but in order to go zero-emissions, what works for cars and tr… Continue reading H2Fly prepares for pioneering liquid hydrogen flight tests

Airbus looks to run full-size airliners on liquid hydrogen by 2035

Airbus says it’s on track to have a fully operational megawatt-class electric powertrain, fueled by cryogenic liquid hydrogen, tested in flight by 2026, ahead of a full-scale zero-emissions passenger airliner it plans to put into service by 2035.Contin… Continue reading Airbus looks to run full-size airliners on liquid hydrogen by 2035

Cryogenic hydrogen SCG Boot off-roader aims to recast fuel cell tech

Trying to race 1,200 miles (1,931 km) of notoriously harsh, prickly desert is difficult in itself. Developing a first-of-its-kind zero-emissions fuel cell off-roader to complete the task is more difficult still. Skipping common compressed-gas hydrogen … Continue reading Cryogenic hydrogen SCG Boot off-roader aims to recast fuel cell tech
