Aviation Hydrogen Fuel Cell Powerplant
REGIONAL RANGE
Battery powered aerial vehicles are range limited, have a low payload fraction, and reduced operational efficiency due to charge time. Our H2 fuel cell aviation electric propulsion system can provide the same range as hydrocarbon combustion engines.
HYDROGEN POWERED
We are developing a modular Hydrogen Fuel Cell Power Plant for General Aviation, Urban Air Mobility and Vertical Lift platforms. Our unique design addresses PEM thermal management, durability, and cost for the aircraft owner/operator.
EMISSION FREE
We are powered by green H2 made from water and solar energy. The impact of switching global air travel to hydrogen power will be > 50 billion tons reduction of CO2 by 2050 if the market is fully adapted to our proposed technology.
