Flying is among the most difficult nut to crack when building carbon-free transportation. According to the International Energy Agency, commercial electric planes will not be practical until batteries become a little more powerful and lightweight. Another option for the future is hydrogen-powered aircraft, and a study group has illustrated what a hydrogen-powered plane would look like.<\/strong><\/p>\n As the global aviation industry looks to a brighter, greener future, FlyZero<\/a> will help the UK stand at the forefront of sustainable flight in design, manufacture, technology and skills. A new dawn for aviation is on the horizon!<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.gdg.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/ati_fly_zero_logo.png” alt=”FlyZero logo” title_text=”ati_fly_zero_logo” admin_label=”image: FlyZero logo” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_5,3_5,1_5″ admin_label=”centre divider” _builder_version=”4.8.2″ collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.4.2″ min_height=”20px” custom_margin=”45px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”content” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.8.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”text” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font_size=”20px” custom_margin=”0%||0%||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n FlyZero is the Aerospace Technology Institute project aiming to realise zero-carbon emission commercial aviation by 2030.<\/p>\n Led by the ATI and backed by the UK Government, FlyZero<\/strong><\/a> is setting out to realise zero-carbon emission air travel by the end of the decade. A team of experts from across the UK is conducting a detailed and holistic study of the design challenges, manufacturing demands, operational requirements and market opportunity of potential zero-carbon emission aircraft concepts.<\/p>\n The FlyZero project, directed by the Aerospace Technology Institute and supported by the United Kingdom government, has developed a concept for a midsize aircraft fuelled by liquid hydrogen. It claimed that the jet would transport 279 passengers nonstop between London and San Francisco, or between London and Auckland, New Zealand, with only a single refuelling stop. Despite its 54-meter wings and two turbofan engines, the aircraft would have the \u201csame speed and comfort as today\u2019s aircraft\u201d while emitting zero carbon emissions.<\/p>\n The Aerospace Technologies Institute (ATI) stated that the concept plane would have cryogenic fuel tanks in the rear fuselage to store hydrogen at -250 degrees Celsius (-418 degrees Fahrenheit). Two smaller \u201ccheek\u201d tanks across the forward fuselage will help to keep the aircraft stable when the fuel is depleted from the main tanks.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.gdg.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/FlyZer-post-pic-2.jpg” title_text=”International Airport on the runway in airport is the international air gateway” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n On the other hand, commercial hydrogen aircraft are still years away from reality. The network for refuelling does not yet exist, and hydrogen is both more costly and more difficult to move onboard than kerosene-based fuel. It is possible that those kinds of planes are not as far-fetched as they appear.<\/p>\n According to the ATI, by the beginning of the 2030s, efficient hydrogen planes may be a more cost-effective alternative to present jets. This is partly due to a transition in other industries toward hydrogen, which is expected to lower supply prices.<\/p>\n The FlyZero project intends to publish more thorough findings later this year, including regional, narrow-body, and medium aircraft designs, economic and market reports, roadmaps for essential technology, and a sustainability evaluation.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”video” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”|||25px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n FlyZero was launched in July 2020 by the Secretary of State for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy.
