New fuel and propulsion technologies are being proposed to ﬠnd suitable alternatives to fossil fuels and new green energy production methods, such as batterypowered and hydrogen-powered aircraft, hybrid systems, and synthetic fuels. Various processes can produce hydrogen, but achieving a low maximum take-off mass is the biggest challenge. Fuel cell aircraft have a low power-to-weigh…
