Hydrogen in 
the sky

Hydrogen is a true zero-carbon fuel that contains three times more energy per weight than jet fuel. With hydrogen becoming more readily available, the cost of hydrogen fuel will only become more affordable and increase its viability to power the future of aviation. Look to Accelera to shift use of hydrogen in aviation, and help you fly towards a greener future.

Flying with hydrogen

An aircraft that uses hydrogen as a main source of energy is a fuel cell aircraft. Accelera supplies fuel cell power modules to the DLR-HY4, a hydrogen-powered aircraft with a 1,500 km range. This four-seat aircraft completed 30 two-hour test flights, offering a promising look at the future of lower-emission aviation.
