The aviation industry, responsible for 2.5% of harmful air pollution, is focusing on sustainable solutions to reduce emissions, with commercial air travel being the primary contributor. Bertrand Piccard, a renowned aviator, is set to attempt a record-breaking global flight in 2028 using liquid hydrogen to power the Climate Impulse aircraft. This innovative approach aims not only to lower planet-warming gases but also to create a more efficient and quieter flying experience. The aircraft, featuring an electric propulsion system powered by hydrogen fuel cells, will undergo testing for two years before the record-breaking attempt. Piccard, known for his previous feats in solar-powered and balloon flights, sees hydrogen-fueled aviation as a significant step towards sustainable progress. The use of hydrogen in aviation has shown promising results, with the potential to reduce air pollution in the industry by up to 75%. By utilizing renewable energy sources like solar and wind, hydrogen can be a clean fuel option for transportation, contributing to a healthier environment. The Climate Impulse project aims to not only achieve a historic flight but also to inspire new ways of thinking and acting towards a better quality of life. Partnering with companies like Syensqo, the project focuses on developing liquid hydrogen technology to enhance its usability. The integration of hydrogen in aviation showcases the industry's commitment to cleaner and more sustainable practices, with potential benefits extending to other sectors as well.
