Our challenge

Hydrogen has great potential to contribute to the decarbonization of industry and transportation. One sector in which hydrogen is expected to play an important role is aviation. Aircraft manufacturers, airlines, and airports are developing new technologies and utilization concepts. Hamburg Airport, for example is preparing for the future use of hydrogen. But is it realistic to think that we are moving towards carbon-free aviation? What are the limiting factors? What ideas do you have for developing an efficient and reliable hydrogen supply system?

But is it realistic to believe that we are moving towards a carbon-free aviation? What are the limiting factors? What ideas do you have for designing an efficient and reliable hydrogen supply system?

Many factors need to be considered and can be analyzed in this challenge. Be part of this journey and get to know Airbus' current plans and visions, work on alternatives and scenarios that you consider important and bring in your own creativity.

Experience working in an international group under the supervision of the teamcher and industry stakeholders. Present your results and ideas to the others.

Whether you focus on one detail or think bigger – your ideas will make a difference.
