GKN Aerospace has recently become a core partner in the ICEFlight project led by Airbus, aiming to accelerate the maturation of critical cryogenic technologies for hydrogen-powered flight. This collaborative initiative, based in the Netherlands, includes key partners such as Cryoworld B.V., Stirling Cryogenics B.V., and academic institutions. The project's focus on liquid hydrogen as a fuel and cold source for electrical system cooling seeks to enhance the performance of future aircraft powertrains. GKN Aerospace will contribute its expertise in hydrogen systems and electrification to develop specialized cryogenic cooling and electrical distribution systems. The project also plans to establish testing facilities in the Netherlands to validate the reliability and performance of these new cryogenic systems, positioning the country as a leader in cryogenic technology. Through this partnership, the research outcomes are expected to introduce innovations in cryogenic cooling systems and electrical networks, paving the way for more sustainable aviation developments in the future.
