"Le Bourget". Airbus to trial in-flight auxiliary power entirely generated by hydrogen
Using fuel cells to explore the power balance between engines and APU

Airbus UpNext has launched a new demonstrator programme to explore, on the ground and in flight, a new architecture for the generation of non propulsive energy through the use of hydrogen fuel cells.On conventional airliners, the APU (Auxiliary Power Unit), a small additional engine that runs on traditional jet fuel, provides together with the engines the energy required to power a number of non-propulsive...
