As global green hydrogen supply chain ramps up, Airbus dreams of airport hydrogen hubs to fuel zero emission flight.
Air travel has been inching towards decarbonization like a snail over two-sided tape, but the pace could pick up as Airbus follows through on its plan to develop hydrogen hubs at airports around the world. Not too long ago, that would involve a copious amount of fossil energy. However, Airbus has just inked an agreement with the global industrial gas firm Linde to help carry out its plan, and Linde has plans for juicing the green hydrogen supply chain.
Legacy firms like Linde have a solid footprint in fossil-sourced hydrogen, but they are also beginning to respond to customer demand for more sustainable sourcing. Carbon clamp-downs in a growing number of jurisdictions globally are also having an impact. Alongside its conventional hydrogen business, Linde also offers a hydrogen product certified as 40% less carbon-intense than the conventional steam method, deploying waste gases and other alternative feedstocks.
The other pathway is to deploy hydrogen as a feedstock to produce new fuels, with carbon dioxide and an assist from renewable energy. That comes under Currently, airports in France, Italy, Japan, Singapore, and South Korea have signed on to the hub concept, which is initially aimed at integrating hydrogen into ground operations., aimed at enhancing ““The joint goal is to enable the broader use of Sustainable Aviation Fuels and to develop the hydrogen ecosystem required for the
“A turboprop design using a turboprop engine instead of a turbofan and also powered by hydrogen combustion in modified gas-turbine engines, which would be capable of traveling more than 1,000 nautical miles…
