In our latest podcast, we speak with Julian Klaaßen, an environmental engineer at Hamburg Airport, about the ambitious plans to achieve fossil-free operations by 2035. Here are some highlights: 

Net Zero 2035: Since 2009, the airport has been working on reducing emissions and has already cut 80% of them. The goal is to be completely fossil-free by 2035.

A new wind park: The airport plans to build its own wind park to generate 100% green electricity, investing €70m 

Green Hydrogen Corridor with Rotterdam: Since 2013, the airport has been testing hydrogen technologies and plans to expand them. A notable highlight: the planned demonstration flight route between Hamburg and Rotterdam with a hydrogen-powered aircraft

Baltic Sea Region Project: Julian explains how this EU-funded project expands expertise across Europe preparing airports for hydrogen technologies

Many thanks to Julian for the great conversation!
