The insight report on sustainable battery and hydrogen-powered flight we produced in collaboration with @wef outlines 8 unlocks that would enable novel technologies to accelerate #netzeroflight
🧵 Here is a summary of these unlocks:
🧵 Here is a summary of these unlocks:
1⃣ Aviation batteries must be charged with #lowcarbon electricity to ensure reduced emissions. To achieve this, airports could store #renewableenergy to avoid depending on the grid or batteries could be swapped in and out of aircraft to increase charging flexibility.
2⃣ While green hydrogen is a viable aviation fuel, care must be taken if blue hydrogen is to be used in aviation, as its production might result in significant #CO2 emissions and methane leaks that offset emissions savings made in-flight.
