Embraer and GKN Aerospace have announced a collaboration agreement, during Paris Airshow, to accelerate the implementation of hydrogen technologies in aviation, reducing emissions and paving the way for a more sustainable future. The partnership aims to support the development of innovative hydrogen fuel cell technology and optimize airframe systems integration.
GKN Aerospace is at the forefront of ground-breaking collaborative hydrogen programs across the Netherlands, Sweden, and the UK. The collaboration is part of Embraer's global efforts to collaborate with the Air Transport industry's commitment to achieve net zero carbon by 2050.
The partnership exemplifies Embraer's commitment to driving innovation and forging a path toward a greener future for the aerospace sector.
GKN Aerospace's flagship hydrogen exploration program, H2Gear, focuses on developing a highly efficient liquid hydrogen propulsion system specifically designed for sub-regional aircraft. This system converts liquid hydrogen into electricity within a state-of-the-art fuel cell system, revolutionizing the aviation industry and ushering in a new era of sustainable air travel.
