It will also contribute to the understanding of supply and infrastructure requirements for hydrogen hubs at airports worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The use of hydrogen to power future aircraft could ultimately eliminate aircraft CO2 emissions in the air while also decarbonizing air transport activities on the ground \u2013 a top priority for all of the partners as they work toward the decarbonization of the aviation industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/05\/airbus-begins-testing-new-pilot-assistance-technologies.html\">Airbus begins testing new pilot assistance technologies<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbus pioneers sustainable aerospace for a safe and united world. The company constantly innovates to provide efficient and technologically-advanced solutions in aerospace. Airbus is currently developing the first hydrogen-powered commercial aircraft with the ambition to enter into service in 2035. Airbus launched the \u201cHydrogen Hub at Airports&#8221; program to jumpstart research into infrastructure requirements and low-carbon airport operations across the entire value chain. To date, agreements have been signed with partners and airports in thirteen countries including Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe U.S. has easy and massive access to additional renewable energies to produce green hydrogen, and airports are looking for a diverse and balanced energy mix to be more resilient and help reduce the impact of aviation on the environment. Hydrogen is a key enabler for this,\u201d said Karine Gu\u00e9nan, Airbus\u2019 Vice President ZEROe Ecosystem. \u201cThe journey to prepare airport infrastructure to support hydrogen and low carbon aviation begins on the ground with pre-feasibility studies like this one, working with pioneer players like Delta, Plug and the world\u2019s busiest airport.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the study, ATL is providing the current airport layout plan and organization and will share updates on future developments and findings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plug Power is a leading provider of equipment and end-to-end, turnkey solutions for the global green hydrogen economy. The company is building an end-to-end green hydrogen ecosystem including the manufacture of electrolyzers, fuel cells and hydrogen facilities across the United States to decarbonize a variety of industrial, transportation and energy needs and applications worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delta is the largest airline operating at the world\u2019s busiest airport, and offers one of the largest commercial airline schedules globally. It has been a core partner in the Airbus ZEROe program since 2022, when it signed on to provide expertise to identify fleet and network expectations, and the operational and infrastructure requirements needed to develop commercial aircraft powered by hydrogen fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study in Atlanta is scheduled for completion at the end of 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
