Hydrogen takes flight as aviation fuel as Brisbane H2 hub gets underway

From the skies above to the roads below, hydrogen is gaining momentum as a clean fuel source across different sectors in the global shift towards a cleaner energy future.

Flying Towards Greener Aviation

London Gatwick Airport is partnering with Airbus, Easyjet, and global hydrogen producer Air Products, to develop hydrogen infrastructure to fuel short and medium-haul flights with hydrogen instead of kerosene.

This project is about much more than just refuelling airliners with hydrogen; it encompasses an entire interconnected system, including ensuring a reliable source of hydrogen supply and storage, developing the infrastructure and procedures for safely refuelling hydrogen-powered planes, and exploring ways to use hydrogen for other purposes at the airport, such as ground vehicles.
