Aviation

The aviation industry is perhaps the most important system in the world, as it is quite literally what connects us. Earning a collective $1 Trillion annually, the industry makes up 35% of the world’s trade value, produces $850 billion in economic activity, and employs over 4 million workers worldwide. To say that it is irreplaceable would be an understatement. However, this massive industry’s aircrafts are also responsible for a considerable amount of resource consumption. Of the world’s supply of 25,368 commercial aircraft, each plane consumes 1 gallon of fuel per second, totaling 36,000 gallons in a 10-hour flight. The total combined aircraft fuel consumed every year is 95 billion gallons, followed by a subsequent 920 million tons of carbon emissions. Hydrogen power is the solution to ceasing these numbers.
