Advancing Hydrogen for Sustainable Aviation in California
Key Ideas
  • Zero-emission hydrogen from California can reduce carbon emissions and air pollution in aviation.
  • A public-private partnership in San Francisco aims to accelerate hydrogen projects for aviation on an industrial scale.
  • The working group's white paper outlines a recommended path for hydrogen's future in California's aviation sector.
In California, efforts are being made to leverage zero-emission hydrogen to mitigate carbon emissions and air pollution in the aviation industry while ensuring energy resilience. The Center for Law, Energy & the Environment, in collaboration with the San Francisco International Airport and the Rocky Mountain Institute, co-chaired an aviation working group. This public-private partnership is focused on advancing hydrogen projects on a large scale to benefit the environment and the aviation sector. The working group has released a white paper that provides a roadmap for the integration of hydrogen in California's aviation industry. The paper outlines strategies and recommendations to promote the use of hydrogen as a sustainable fuel in aviation, highlighting its potential to revolutionize the sector. This initiative signifies a positive step towards embracing cleaner energy sources and reducing the environmental impact of air travel in California.
