Hydrogen-electric propulsion system developer ZeroAvia is teaming up with AGS Airports as part of its efforts to ensure fueling infrastructure is in place to support aircraft. Through their new partnership, the companies will explore the hydrogen fuel infrastructure, regulatory requirements, and other resources that will be necessary to support hydrogen-powered aviation at Aberdeen International Airport and Glasgow International Airport in Scotland.

AGS—which owns and operates Aberdeen and Glasgow airports, as well as Southampton in England—will also work with ZeroAvia’s infrastructure team to determine the feasibility of on-site hydrogen fuel production at its facilities.
