We have achieved a major breakthrough in aerospace fuel cell systems! Our SuperStack Flex LTPEM fuel cell architecture has been tested at over 1.0 kW/kg specific net power at the full system level. For more information, check out our press release and download the brochure here: https://lnkd.in/eVgemVPh These outstanding test results were made possible by our innovative use of additive manufacturing techniques. This approach has significantly reduced the weight and volume of key components in the SuperStack Flex’s balance of plant. The SuperStack Flex is a modular fuel cell power generation platform that can be scaled up to 600kW of continuous power. It is designed to be an optimal solution for many UAVs and has potential applications across aerospace, marine, and ground vehicles.

In preparation for the launch of hydrogen-electric commercial aircraft service, ZeroAvia and FlightSafety International have announced that they will develop training resources for pilots and maintenance technicians to support adoption of hydrogen-electric propulsion technologies. Partnering with the world’s preeminent professional aviation training company enables ZeroAvia to prepare our customer airlines and other organizations for the transition to clean, efficient and affordable propulsion. Another important step towards a Clean Future of Flight. Read here: https://lnkd.in/eCsqN2Je #zeroemission #hydrogen #aviation

We have been awarded an innovation grant by AFWERX to advance the development of an autonomous hydrogen-electric aircraft! As the innovation arm of the US Air Force (DAF) and powered by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), AFWERX brings cutting edge American ingenuity from small businesses and start-ups to address the most pressing challenges of the DAF. As part of this feasibility study, we will explore the integration of hydrogen propulsion into a Cessna Caravan aircraft alongside advanced automation technology. Our research will provide valuable insights into how hydrogen fuel cell propulsion can lower operation costs and detectability, enhance the capabilities of autonomous air vehicles, and mitigate fuel supply risks in forward-operating environments.

Check out this close-up! Here is our 600kW electric motor ready for bench testing on our dynamometer in Everett, Washington. We’ll be testing for torque vs speed capabilities, efficiency, noise and vibration and cooling parameters. On the underside we see the fluid temperature and pressure sensors, the motor temperature sensors, the AC-phase connectors and fluid cooling port. Pretty cool.

"We need hydrogen - SAF will not do it alone" The aviation industry faces a critical moment in its journey toward decarbonization. As ACI President Armando Brunini emphasized in Aviation Week, reaching net zero demands bold technological advancements, and despite industry headwinds, now is the time to accelerate progress, not slow down. While SAF plays a role in reducing emissions, it is not a complete solution. Hydrogen-electric aviation will involve huge reduction of both CO2 and non-CO2 climate impacting emissions, a removal of harmful air pollutants to improve health outcomes for people living close to airports, reduced noise and, crucially, improved economics for the aviation sector. At ZeroAvia, we're actively driving this shift. The only way forward is through innovation, and the solutions that will ultimately win are those that combine environmental impact with economic advantages. Start small, scale from there. The best way to do it, is to just do it. Read the full article on ACI's comments by Thierry Dubois here and share your thoughts with us: https://lnkd.in/ed-2UZzp #aviation #hydrogen #netzero

We're thrilled to welcome former Federal Aviation Administration administrator Billy Nolen, FRAeS as our new Senior Strategy & Regulatory Advisor! As the aviation industry transitions to alternative propulsion systems and innovative aircraft designs, having a leader with deep regulatory and safety expertise is a huge advantage. Billy's insights will be crucial as we progress toward certifying our first engine and bringing it into service. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/ePP_e2sa #zeroemission #aviation

🔝 🛫 Wrapping up an inspiring Day 2 at #CAAF2025! Today, industry leaders and innovators shared their vision for the future of aviation, highlighting the crucial steps needed to accelerate decarbonisation. 🔹 Florian Guillermet (EASA - European Union Aviation Safety Agency), reinforced the importance of collaboration with the industry to shaping the certification framework for future aviation technologies. The demonstration phase under Clean Aviation plays a crucial role in this process, but a shift in mindset is needed. Embracing digitalisation in certification procedures will be essential to streamline approvals and accelerate innovation 🔹 Daniel Cuchet (ATR) emphasised that a regional market mindset is essential. Testing and demonstrating different solutions is the only way to determine what truly works. Clean Aviation projects stand as a great example of this approach, driving real-world innovation through hands-on experimentation. 🔹 Val Miftakhov (ZeroAvia) demonstrated how hydrogen-powered flight is moving from concept to reality, paving the way for zero-emission aviation. 🤝🌠𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬, 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐭-𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 ✨Thanks to Magali Minet for facilitating such insightful discussions today! #CleanAviation #Innovation #Research #technology #HorizonEU #FP10

"Why is hydrogen so crucial for sustainable aviation?" "It is the best energy carrier to deliver electric propulsion for large commercial aircraft and we absolutely must get to non-combustion propulsion solutions to be truly sustainable. Fuel cells also offer greater efficiency and superior economics. Crucially, it’s not a solution that is 2035 and beyond. We are talking about 2026 for the first commercial routes and the technology and infrastructure will scale from there." "The best way to do it, is to just do it. Start with Part 23, make tangible things happen and then convince people that the technology and infrastructure are possible.” ZeroAvia CEO Val Miftakhov addresses the Clean Aviation Annual Forum in Brussels, joining a panel alongside Sabine Klauke (CTO, Airbus), Eric Dalbiès (CTO, Safran), Florian Guillermet (Executive Director, EASA) and Marco Protti (Head of Advanced Research, Leonardo).
