Energy uses
Current trend of the technology :

Hydrogen in aviation: a hydrogen-powered aircraft is an airplane that uses hydrogen fuel as a power source. Hydrogen can either be burned in a jet engine or can be used to power a fuel cell in order to generate electricity to power a propeller.

Research has intensified over recent years. But the road to hydrogen-powered aircraft still requires significant efforts on the part of the aviation industry and beyond. From hydrogen storage, cost and infrastructure to public perceptions on safety, the aviation sector is working to mature this technology whilst tackling major challenges. ? However, only one aircraft manufacturing company Airbus has promised hydrogen airplanes for 2035 for short haul and limited passengers transport (e.g., ZEROe project).
