France’s H3 Dynamics has presented its self-contained hydrogen propulsion pods for retrofit or line fit to drones and airplanes. They deliver enormous range and endurance figures without heavy batteries, and they mirror the approach Airbus and others a… Continue reading H3 debuts all-in-one hydrogen powertrain pods for long-range flight
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

Rolls-Royce has edged the era of clean aviation a little closer to take-off with the successful testing of a modern jet engine using hydrogen as fuel. The test is described as a landmark achievement and an important step in the decarbonization of the i… Continue reading Rolls-Royce fires up its first hydrogen jet engine
Last April, a hydrogen-powered ZeroAvia test plane lost power and crashed during flight tests. The UK’s Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) has now completed its investigation into the incident, and confirmed that the hydrogen system was not resp… Continue reading ZeroAvia crash investigation complete: It wasn’t the hydrogen
H2 Clipper presents a very compelling case to bring back an extremely controversial technology, saying that large electric airships lifted and powered by green hydrogen stand ready to transport massive cargo loads over enormous distances much faster th… Continue reading Zero-emissions hydrogen cargo airship prototype planned for 2025
The Celera 500L is a truly remarkable design. Otto Aviation says its odd shape delivers an astonishing 59 percent reduction in drag, and a massive leap in efficiency and range compared to traditional plane geometries. Arguably, this thing should’ve bee… Continue reading World’s most efficient passenger plane gets hydrogen powertrain

The entire airline industry needs to wean itself off jet fuel over the next few decades – but it’s still buying enormously expensive jet aircraft that are expected to keep bringing home the bacon for more than 20 years. Australian company Aviation H2 h… Continue reading First ammonia-powered jet flight in 2023: A roadmap to clean aviation
A revolutionary cryogenic tank design promises to radically boost the range of hydrogen-powered aircraft – to the point where clean, fuel-cell airliners could fly up to four times farther than comparable planes running on today’s dirty jet fuel.Continu… Continue reading Ultra-light liquid hydrogen tanks promise to make jet fuel obsolete
