Abstract

To enable hydrogen-powered aircraft operations, liquid hydrogen infrastructure has to be planned well in advance. This study analyses the transition pathway of liquid hydrogen supply infrastructure, from the initial development phase to market penetration, optimizing the design and dispatch of the system.
