ZeroAvia today announced that it has signed a partnership agreement with Masdar, a clean energy company, to explore hydrogen production and supply at key locations.
The partnership with the UAE’s renewable energy company, Masdar, ZeroAvia says will focus initially on projects in North America and Europe, while also looking at the opportunity to establish clean flight operations in the UAE.
“Masdar aims to be a global green hydrogen leader through a “smart first mover” approach, by developing and investing in strategic projects and building scalable platforms in key markets” according to the press release. “The company is targeting 1 million tonnes of green hydrogen production per year by 2030.
“Masdar’s Green Hydrogen division is already heavily involved in major aviation projects targeting the production of green hydrogen. This new collaboration with ZeroAvia is likely to power the world’s first hydrogen-powered commercial flights.
“The UAE aims to produce 1.4 million tonnes of hydrogen annually by 2031 and expects the figure to increase tenfold to 15 million by 2050, showing the scale of the country’s ambitions. Masdar is deeply committed to building the UAE’s green hydrogen economy and has signed and executed several global collaboration agreements with strategic partners in recent years.”
