To develop an aircraft that does not emit carbon dioxide using hydrogen as fuel Airbus September 22, 20:45

Airbus, a major European aircraft manufacturer, has announced plans to develop an aircraft that uses hydrogen as fuel and does not emit carbon dioxide by 2035.

Airbus announced on the 21st that it will develop an aircraft that does not emit carbon dioxide by 2035 in order to take measures against global warming in the aviation industry.



All three models announced as concept models are fueled by hydrogen, with 120 to 200 seats and a cruising range of 3700 km or more, and a maximum of 100 seats and a cruising range of 1800. There are models of propellers over kilograms.

In addition, some models feature a design in which the wings and the fuselage are integrated.



In addition to storing hydrogen as a liquid and burning it in an engine, it is also considering using it as electricity in a fuel cell.



Regarding aircraft, there is a movement in Europe to choose trains as a means of long-distance transportation because of the high carbon dioxide emissions.



Airbus has emphasized the significance of using hydrogen to halve carbon dioxide emissions in the aviation industry, and CEO Foli said, "The transition to hydrogen requires action by the entire aviation industry," which is a challenge. We called on the government and industry to support the development of infrastructure.
