Hydrogen-powered aircraft and ships
Assesses the interest of the aerospace and maritime sectors in new hydrogen technologies.
Challenge
An academic group has developed a new technology related to the use of hydrogen in the aviation (drones, light aircraft, commercial aircraft) and maritime (yachts, ships) sectors.
They are assessing whether they want to incorporate new hydrogen propulsion technologies when this transition occurs, what the drivers will be, and how they evaluate the technology.
Solution
Many professionals from various sectors have been contacted, including drones, small-scale aviation, large-scale aviation, yachts, merchant navy, and infrastructure managers, such as the port of Barcelona.
The implementation of hydrogen moves at different speeds, with drones, light aircraft, and yachts being the most closely aligned.
Regulatory legislation has been compiled where it is already defined.
Result
- Some of the professionals contacted would like to explore collaborations through competitive public funding projects.
- The technology is still at an early stage of being effectively implemented in finished prototypes. A roadmap is defined as evolving it to have an actual use case.
