ZeroAvia is stepping up its plans for hydrogen-powered regional airliners through a new partnership with renewable power group Zev Station. In an April 4 announcement, the companies said they will jointly develop green hydrogen refueling infrastructure at an unspecified number of California airports. According to the new partners, their aim is to demonstrate the feasibility of supporting zero-emissions hydrogen-powered regional airline services.

ZeroAvia is developing a hydrogen powertrain to enable aircraft with between 10 and 20 seats to operate on flights of up to around 500 miles. It says it will conduct pilot flight operations at the as-yet-unnamed airports.
