It will provide WIZZ with a much deeper understanding of how operating a zero-emission hydrogen aircraft could positively impact the airline\u2019s future business model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/05\/airbus-launches-zero-emissions-development-center-in-uk.html\">Airbus launches Zero Emissions Development Center in UK for hydrogen technologies.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The objective of this MoU is to identify both operational and infrastructure opportunities and challenges of hydrogen aircraft. Both parties will collaborate to develop a deep understanding of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The evolution of the global hydrogen ecosystem from the perspectives of society, regulation, energy pricing and hydrogen infrastructure.<\/li><li>The impact of hydrogen aircraft on Wizz Air\u2019s fleet, operations and infrastructure, including its network, scheduling, ground bases and airports, by considering specific aircraft characteristics, such as achievable range and refuelling time.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAt Wizz Air, we remain ambitious with our growth strategy to deliver on our commitment to make travel affordable for all, while delivering a great customer experience on-board one of the youngest and greenest fleets in Europe. We believe that growth and sustainability are not mutually exclusive, with leading-edge new technology paving the way to more sustainable air travel. This momentous agreement with Airbus will advance sustainable aviation across the globe through development of ultra-efficient operations and business models of the future. We are absolutely thrilled and look forward to beginning our co-operation,\u201d Johan Eidhagen, Chief People &amp; ESG Officer, Wizz Air said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWorking with our customers is paramount to developing a climate-neutral, zero-emission aircraft by 2035. We are very pleased to have Wizz Air on board to collaborate on the ongoing research and development into the requirements for hydrogen aircraft operations within a hydrogen powered aviation ecosystem. Understanding airline fleet and network performance enables us to better define the architectural characteristics for a future ZEROe aircraft as well as the impact on airports, ground support and route network\u201d, Glenn Llewellyn, Vice President Zero Emission Aircraft, Airbus said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
