SAE Tomorrow Today

120. Paving the Way for Zero-Emission Aviation


Listen Later

Hydrogen fuel cell power is ready for takeoff.

.

Imagine an aircraft without exhaust; the only emission is water. That’s what hydrogen fuel cell technology can do. From regional trips today to long-distance flights in the future, ZeroAvia is enabling scalable, sustainable aviation by retrofitting conventional engines with hydrogen-electric powertrains.

.

As the fastest-growing source of greenhouse gas emissions, the aviation industry is primed for change. Hydrogen-electric propulsion is the best way to scale sustainable aviation for commercial use as it offers longer flight range, lower maintenance costs, zero emissions and lower fuel costs. Fueled by recent partnerships with United Airlines and Alaska Air, ZeroAvia is pioneering the transition to clean aviation.

.

Hear from James McMicking, Vice President of Strategy at ZeroAvia, on why the future of flight will be powered by hydrogen and how his company is developing robust standards alongside operators, airframers and infrastructure partners.

As we look to the future of aviation, the evolution of standards related to hydrogen fuel cell power will play a key role in accelerating its adoption. If you’d like to get involved, please contact us at [email protected].
