Hydroplane to Exhibit and Present about its Hydrogen Fuel Cell Powerplant Development at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2022

OSHKOSH, WI  – Los Angeles-based Hydroplane (Booths 4055 & 4066 in Hangar D) is participating in EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2022 both as an exhibitor and participant in multiple presentations about its modular hydrogen fuel cell powerplant for carbon emission free aviation.

Hydroplane is developing a modular 200-kW (270 hp) hydrogen fuel cell powerplant for the experimental aircraft, general aviation, and urban air mobility markets. The sustainable aviation company, funded by the U.S. Air Force’s prestigious Agility Prime Program and led by space program veterans, is developing its novel electric propulsion powerplant to replace combustion-piston driven engines in currently certified, experimental, and future aircraft. Hydroplane’s novel fuel cell stack and balance plant is specifically designed for single engine aviation as it is light weight with a compact form factor, highly durable, and emits only water. The powerplant also provides a significant increase in endurance over battery-powered alternatives. Hydroplane is on track to fly its demonstrator aircraft in 2023.

In addition to exhibiting alongside her rocket scientist team in Hydroplane’s interactive booth at EAA AirVenture 2022, Hydroplane founder Dr. Anita Sengupta will participate in several events highlighting the company’s pioneering technology.
