Hydrogen-powered
-
Liquid hydrogen is a giant pain to handle, but it's one of the few technologies with a genuine chance of decarbonizing long-range flight. So it's huge news for clean aviation that H2Fly has now landed the word's first piloted liquid hydrogen flight.

A student team from TU Delft presented the latest Eco-Runner in May, a hydrogen-powered city car concept designed to be more than a hundred times more fuel-efficient than modern fossil-fuel vehicles. Now the car has set a Guinness distance record.
-
French transport multinational Alstom debuted the world's first hydrogen fuel-cell passenger train back in 2016, which went into service in Germany last year. Now the Coradia iLint is rolling down the track in North America for the first time.
-
Tevva has been working to ease the burden of carbon reductions on fleet operators. In January, it began production of its battery-powered medium-duty electric truck. Now it's improved the efficiency of its regenerative braking system by four times.
-
The blended-wing Natilus Kona aircraft, which is now flying in quarter-scale testing in California, is set to have a zero-emissions variant thanks to a partnership with Zeroavia, which will provide a 600 kW hydrogen-electric powertrain option.
-
Alpine's street cars might not be known for outrageous design, but this Alpenglow concept would grab its share of eyeballs even parked next to a Delage D12, an Aston Martin Valkyrie and a Bugatti Bolide. Plus, it's noisy. Plus, it's zero-emissions.

Compared to the electric camper vans, a hydrogen fuel cell RV could immediately boost driving range to something practical. First Hydrogen explores just such a concept, showing its next-generation fuel cell vehicle as an all-terrain camper van.
-
The world's largest rail vehicle manufacturer has rolled out a zero-emissions train running on hydrogen fuel cells with a supercapacitor buffer. The four-car train is capable of 100 mph (160 km/h), making it the fastest hydrogen train to date.
-
ZeroAvia's 19-seat Dornier 228 has taken its first test flight in the UK. It's a testbed for the company's clean aviation technology, using a zero-emissions hydrogen-electric powertrain that's slated for certification and commercial flights by 2025.
-
France's H3 Dynamics has presented a self-contained hydrogen propulsion pod for drones and airplanes, delivering huge range and endurance figures without heavy batteries. It mirrors the approach Airbus and others are taking with commercial airliners.
-
Toyota forges ahead with its multi-pronged sustainable vehicle strategy. The Hilux Revo BEV concept makes an appearance just days after the company announced a fuel cell Hilux prototype. Will the future of the rugged pickup be BEV, FCEV or both?
-
Hydrogen combustion engines offer a chance to go (nearly) green without losing the sound, feel and excitement of driving a noisy, mechanical, piston-driven engine. Toyota has been racing one, and now it's evaluating a prototype Corolla for the street.
