The Clean Future of Flight

Revolutionizing Aircraft Propulsion

Hydrogen-electric and electric propulsion technology for clean, efficient and affordable flight.

ZeroAvia is developing full hydrogen-electric engines for existing commercial aircraft and also supplying hydrogen and electric propulsion component technologies for novel battery, hybrid and hydrogen-electric air transport applications.

Aviation’s climate impact will grow exponentially without scalable, affordable and holistic solutions

Rapid CO2 IncreaseWithout radical action, aviation’s CO2 contribution will grow from 3% today to 22% as demand increases and other industries decarbonize

2018

Large Non CO2 ImpactA Bigger Problem: Non-CO2 aircraft emissions (NOx, contrails, SOx, PM, soot, etc) combined around double the climate impact of CO2 alone

2018

SAF Costs and ScalabilityTransitional fuels such as SAFs cannot remove CO2 and non-CO2 emissions in flight, are difficult to scale and significantly more expensive than jet fuel

Delivering a Clean Future of Flight

Powertrains

Hydrogen-electric powertrains for 10-20 seat and 40-80 seat regional aircraft. Delivering truly clean flight with lower operating costs.

Components

Fuel cell and electric propulsion system components with high power density, flexibility and reliability, offering a step change for electric aircraft.

H2 Refueling

Breakthrough hydrogen production and refueling technologies combined with peerless knowledge on developing airport hydrogen ecosystems.

Markets

We are working with aircraft operators, owners and manufacturers to supply the world’s breakthrough zero-emission engines and the infrastructure and fuel to power a revolution in green flight.

Operators

Switching to hydrogen-electric propulsion can deliver 40 percent operational cost savings and zero-emission flights

OEMs

The only alternative propulsion system that can deliver the range, payload and emissions elimination required by the market

Lessors

Dramatically cut operating costs, deliver zero-emission flight and significantly lengthen the lifespan of existing aircraft in service

Airports

Cut emissions from flights operated and wider footprint, reduce noise and air quality impact, and secure new revenue streams
