As Europe's largest hydrogen fuel cell test facility for aviation, it provides up to 1.5 MW of power for testing components and complete propulsion systems. This highly automated multi-integration test environment makes it possible to combine real components (fuel cell, electric motor, battery) and emulated components and test them under real load conditions.

Hydrogen is beginning to play a major role as a fuel in high bypass turbofans. However, it can also serve as a synthetic fuel generator for these same engines in combination with CO2 capture. In this way CMT–Clean Mobility & Thermofluids (UPV) has created IRINA, a high performance test bench to simulate the behavior of the new fuels in a continuous combustion chamber.
Do you remember our post about the #AMBER project? This is not the only technology of the future which GE Aerospace is focused on. GE Aerospace is also developing hydrogen propulsion technologies through the HYDEA project - HYdrogen DEmonstrator for Aviation. The project looks to address fundamental issues related to the use of hydrogen as an aviation fuel, including emissions and the technology itself. The combined teams of GE Aerospace Poland, GE Deutschland and GE Marmara Technology Center led by Avio Aero, together with partners throughout Europe, have committed their knowledge and experience to the HYDEA project, which is funded by the European Union under the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking. This is another great challenge for us and an important contribution to the development of air transport with fewer emissions. More information about the project can be found in the European Commission's CORDIS database. https://lnkd.in/gAwtG2Hq #CleanAviation #Hydrogen #Aviationresearch #HorizonEurope #euresearch

Associate Professor at the University of Twente | Hydrogen | Integrated Energy Systems | Circular and Sustainable Energy Solutions
🚀 Hydrogen-Electric Propulsion 🛩️ Stellar Jet has introduced a hydrogen-electric ducted fan propulsion system for a regional hybrid VTOL aircraft. The system unveiled at Payerne Airport operates with hydrogen fuel and emits only water vapor. 🔍 The aim is clean aviation, with contributions from BMW Group Designworks, Leonardo Aerostructures, and Sauber Group F1. The ignition demonstration showcased hydrogen’s potential, but key questions remain: scalability, hydrogen sourcing, and efficiency. ⚖️ Hydrogen-electric systems offer a promising path, but challenges in infrastructure, cost, and lifecycle emissions must be addressed. The aviation sector’s transition requires a holistic approach—energy supply, efficiency, and regulatory support all play a role. 🌍 Moving forward, it will be crucial to evaluate techno-economic feasibility and sustainability beyond direct emissions. Progress in hydrogen storage, fuel cell performance, and aircraft design will determine the viability of such solutions in commercial aviation. #Hydrogen #Aviation #SustainableEnergy #Decarbonization #HydrogenEconomy #EnergyTransition

How will superconducting technologies shape the future of hydrogen-powered aviation? Airbus UpNext and Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation have joined forces to develop superconducting technologies aimed at advancing hydrogen-powered aircraft. Hydrogen is seen as a crucial solution to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, and this collaboration could be a game-changer for electric propulsion systems. The project focuses on the co-development of a two-megawatt superconducting motor, utilizing cryogenic technology for efficient power transmission and energy performance. This partnership, announced during the Japan International Aerospace Exhibition 2024, was signed by Airbus’ Grzegorz (Greg) Ombach Ph.D and Toshiba’s Tsutomu TAKEUCHI, both recognizing the potential of these innovations to decarbonize aviation. The collaboration comes on the heels of Airbus UpNext’s Cryoprop demonstrator, which is designed to test superconducting electric propulsion systems, while Toshiba continues its R&D in this field with decades of expertise. What impact could these breakthroughs have on the future of hydrogen-powered aircraft?
