As the aviation industry races to find ways to reduce its carbon footprint, hydrogen has emerged as a high-potential solution to its problems. So, how will this technology work?
As the aviation industry races to find ways to reduce its carbon footprint, hydrogen has emerged as a high-potential solution to its problems.
According to the International Energy Agency, aviation will account for 2% of global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions by 2022.
IATA is the trade association for the world’s airlines and is committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
Hydrogen and electric technologies are expected to account for 13% of this shift, which explains why the hydrogen aircraft market could be worth $7.4 billion by 2030, up 98% from 2020, according to Markets and Markets.
So, how do hydrogen fuel and airplanes work? Watch the video above to learn more.
