Climate protection - Hamburg Airport joins Airbus hydrogen network
Hamburg Airport is joining an international Airbus network for the use of hydrogen in aviation. On Friday (10.30 a.m.), the airport operator and the world's largest aircraft manufacturer plan to sign a cooperation agreement to this effect.
Airbus, airports, airlines and companies from the energy sector, including from France, Singapore, Japan and New Zealand, are working together in the "Hydrogen Hub at Airport" network, according to the airport's announcement. "The common goal is to research, develop and expand the infrastructure for the use of hydrogen." According to the airport, Hamburg is the first German airport in this network.
"Green" hydrogen produced as a substitute for fossil fuels is seen as one of the beacons of hope in the fight against climate change. Airbus is currently working on a hydrogen-powered passenger aircraft that should be ready for use by airlines by 2035.
Hamburg Airport is also preparing for the future of hydrogen-powered flight. The use of hydrogen as a fuel in aviation requires a completely new infrastructure. "We have to start preparing and building this infrastructure now if we want to establish climate-friendly propulsion systems in aviation in the near future," said Jan Eike Blohme-Hardegen, Head of Environmental Protection at the airport, recently.
