The head of the British airline Easyjet, Johan Lundgren, said in an interview with Neue Zürcher Zeitung that he wants to improve airport infrastructure for hydrogen aircraft.
Technological development is currently moving much faster than the preparation of infrastructure and production, Lundgren said in an interview published on September 26. “These things need to be adjusted before the first hydrogen plane takes off.”
Hydrogen requires four times more space on board than kerosene, which is currently stored in the wings. “But it seems clear to me that we should rely on the hydrogen industry because it has many possible applications beyond flight,” he said.
Lundgren believes it is the airline’s responsibility to start discussing this issue. According to him, Easyjet is investing its resources in aircraft powered by hydrogen.
