Hydrogen Aviation

Hydrogen Aviation refers to the use of hydrogen as a fuel source for aircraft and aviation technologies. This concept involves utilizing hydrogen, either in its gaseous form or as a liquid cryogenic fuel, to power aircraft engines, thereby aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the environmental impact of air travel. Hydrogen can be burned in a modified jet engine or used in fuel cells to generate electricity for electric propulsion systems. The shift towards hydrogen aviation is part of a broader movement within the aviation industry to achieve sustainability goals, including net-zero carbon emissions. Innovations in hydrogen production, storage, and distribution, as well as advancements in aircraft design, are essential to making hydrogen aviation a viable alternative to traditional fossil fuel-based aviation.
