Longer Flight Range
Liquid hydrogen provides higher energy density compared to batteries, enabling eVTOLs to cover greater distances with fewer refuelling stops.
Lighter Weight
Hydrogen fuel systems are lighter than battery alternatives, reducing the overall weight of the aircraft, improving efficiency and increasing payload.
Fast Refuelling
Refuelling with liquid hydrogen is quicker than recharging batteries, enhancing the operational efficiency of eVTOLs for frequent flights.
Payload Capacity
Liquid hydrogen systems are lighter than battery-powered alternatives, allowing eVTOLs to carry heavier payloads without compromising performance.
