Hydrogen Aviation: The Path to Net-Zero Emissions by 2050 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Hydrogen Infrastructure for Aviation - Market and Technology Forecast to 2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The aviation industry faces increasing pressure to reduce its environmental impact, and hydrogen has emerged as a promising technology to achieve sustainable flight.

This report provides a market and technology forecast for hydrogen infrastructure in aviation up to 2033. Technological advancements are rapidly occurring across the hydrogen value chain, from production and storage to transportation and refuelling. Short-range hydrogen-powered aircraft could potentially enter service by 2035. Governments and regulatory bodies are increasingly providing support through initiatives and policies to drive the adoption of hydrogen in aviation.

Despite the considerable opportunities, significant challenges remain in terms of technological development, infrastructure build-out, and cost reduction.

The urgent need for decarbonization across all sectors, including aviation, is driven by growing concerns about environmental health and the imperative to meet global climate goals. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions from their operations by 2050.

Hydrogen stands out as a compelling alternative fuel for aviation, offering the potential for zero direct carbon emissions from aircraft operations. A key advantage of hydrogen is its high energy-to-mass ratio, which is particularly beneficial for aerospace applications.

Recent innovations include the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL) achievement in increasing fuel cell power density by 20% in March 2024, enhancing their suitability for passenger aircraft. In June 2024, Airbus and a leading fuel cell manufacturer unveiled a prototype with improved coatings and membrane technologies, significantly extending fuel cell lifespan. Collaborative efforts are also gaining momentum.

This study aims to provide readers with an in-depth understanding of the latest developments within this rapidly evolving sector, encompassing both market trends and technological advancements crucial for the implementation of hydrogen-powered aircraft.
