🛫✨ Excited to learn that Kirkwall will have the first operational #hydrogen-electric flying service by 2027 courtesy of Loganair Limited, who has signed an MOU with Cranfield Aerospace Solutions.
👉A significant step towards the Scottish Government’s Update to the Climate Change Plan which set the ambition for Scotland’s internal passenger flights to be #decarbonised by 2040.
Loganair is the UK’s largest regional airline and operates lifeline services between all the Scottish Islands and the mainland of Scotland. Driven by a commitment to sustainability, Loganair has set an ambitious goal to achieve Net Zero across all of its operations by 2040. This underscores the airline’s proactive approach toward sustainable aviation, including the potential adoption of CAeS’s hydrogen fuel cell technology into their Islander fleet.
Meanwhile, CAeS continues pioneering in developing a proprietary hydrogen fuel-cell (#HFC) propulsion system. Initially tailored for the Britten-Norman Islander, this ground-breaking technology holds the promise of extending to a spectrum of manned and unmanned platforms, including cargo aircraft, thereby amplifying the potential for widespread sustainability in aviation.
