Airbus taxi trials

Posted 16/07/2011

Airbus, together with research partner German Aerospace Center (DLR), has trialed emission free ground operations using fuel cell technology.

Airbus is examining the potential of this technology and its integration into the aircraft, and successfully performed the first flight test on a civil transport aircraft in 2008, where a fuel cell system provided power for the aircraft’s back-up systems.
