The Recovery and Resilience Facility contributes EUR 68.5 million to this project. Aviation in transition aims at making the Dutch aviation sector sustainable by removing bottlenecks related to the scale-up of technologies for the use of hydrogen as an energy carrier in aircrafts.
Support is provided for the design for a hydrogen combustion turbofan 'H2-turbofan Ombouw', design of the hydrogen fuel cell electric propulsion system for application on CS-23 certifiable aircraft, and the establishment of a sustainable aviation think tank - Flying Vision - in which Dutch aviation research institutes, airlines and airports as well as international aircraft original equipment manufacturers shall be represented.
The investment is expected to be completed by 31 December 2025
