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
Piasecki Aircraft has announced it’s putting a HyPoint turbo air-cooled fuel cell and an electric powertrain into an ultralight helicopter from EDM Aerotec, hoping to achieve the world’s first manned hydrogen-powered helicopter flight – with its own co… Continue reading Piasecki outlines its path to the world’s first manned hydrogen helicopter flight
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
Israeli VTOL air taxi developer Urban Aeronautics has announced it’s partnering with HyPoint to develop a long range, hydrogen fuel cell-powered, emissions-free version of its remarkable CityHawk aircraft, based on the military Cormorant/AirMule design… Continue reading Urban Aeronautics moves to hydrogen for its CityHawk eVTOL air taxi
