ZeroAvia's Hydrogen Powertrain Attracts New Applications
Hydrogen fuel cell systems, power electronics, and electric motors are on display at Farnborough show
ZeroAvia's hydrogen propulsion technology for aircraft
ZeroAvia is developing hydrogen propulsion technology for aircraft, as well as the necessary ground infrastructure to support operations.

Hydrogen propulsion innovator ZeroAvia is back at the Farnborough International Airshow with its largest exhibit yet. The company, which splits its operations between Washington state and the UK, will also announce this week commercial agreements with a pair of airlines and the developer of a new seaplane.

The first of these deals to be announced early on Monday morning will see Swiss start-up Jekta select ZeroAvia's fuel cell power generation system as the basis for a planned hydrogen-electric version of its PHA-ZE 100 amphibious aircraft. Jekta anticipates the technology will allow its 19-passenger aircraft to operate on routes of up to around 326 nm, which is around four times the range of the battery-electric version currently in development.
