American Airlines<\/strong> monday announced its strategic equity investment in Universal Hydrogen, a company building a green hydrogen distribution and logistics network for aviation. The investment supports American\u2019s science based targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2035, and ultimately its commitment to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This investment makes American the first U.S. airline to make two direct investments focused on the development of both hydrogen-electric propulsion technology and the future of hydrogen distribution logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Universal Hydrogen\u2019s fuel distribution network uses modular hydrogen capsules that are handled like cargo, eliminating the need for new fueling infrastructure at airports and speeding up fuel loading operations. Universal Hydrogen anticipates starting hydrogen deliveries for regional aircraft in 2025, with plans to expand its services to larger, single aisle aircraft \u2014 first for auxiliary power in the late-2020s and then as a primary fuel by the mid-2030s. Because these segments represent two-thirds of aviation emissions \u2014 and with green hydrogen being a true zero-carbon fuel \u2014 these advances put aviation on a path to meet Paris Agreement emissions targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis technology has the potential to be a game-changer on the industry\u2019s path to zero-emission flight,\u201d said American\u2019s Chief Financial Officer Derek Kerr. \u201cAs the world\u2019s largest airline, American has a responsibility to exercise leadership in making aviation sustainable”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American joins Airbus Ventures, GE Aviation and Toyota Ventures, as well as several major hydrogen producers and aircraft lessors, as strategic investors in Universal Hydrogen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
