Technology for storing and distributing hydrogen in liquid form at very low temperatures. Airbus is developing composite hydrogen-system technologies for this application in aviation.

Hydrogen stored in a liquid state, which requires cryogenic temperatures. It was used in the Ion Tiger UAV for extended flight.

A type of hydrogen fuel cell using a proton exchange membrane, suitable for lower temperature aviation use.

United Kingdom

A green aviation technology project led by GKN Aerospace developing zero-emissions aircraft powered by hydrogen fuel or electricity.

A UK-based industry consortium project to develop and test scalable liquid hydrogen fuel system technology for aircraft, culminating in a complete system ground demonstration.

An Innovate UK-funded project that led to the joint design and build of a ground-based demonstrator of a 2.4 kW liquid hydrogen system for testing aviation fuel feasibility.
