While many airlines have taken steps to cut emissions, a large percentage of jet fuel still comes from fossil sources, and there aren't a lot of alternatives on the horizon. Hydrogen can make a big difference here, cutting CO2 emissions by as much as 50-75% and drastically reducing impacts from contrail and cirrus formation. Hydrogen is a green alternative to the conventional fuel, and produces only water as a byproduct. Due to the deteriorating environmental condition owing to carbon emission from transport vehicles, governments around the world are taking steps to control the carbon footprint of the aviation industry. This has prompted the manufacturers to develop new fuel-efficient aircrafts that use less gas than the conventional planes.
Market Dynamics:
Increase in air passenger traffic is anticipated to fuel the hydrogen aircraft market. Rising globalization of businesses has resulted in a massive number of domestic and international flights. This in turn has led to the production of increased level of air pollution. This has prompted the government to take major initiatives to curb carbon emissions and promote sustainable commute solutions, which in turn is expected to propel the growth of hydrogen aircraft market.
However, high cost of hydrogen production and storing it at lower temperatures may hinder the growth of the market over the forecast period. Also, transition from kerosene-based to hydrogen aircrafts requires huge investments. This in turn, is expected to obstruct the growth of the market.
