Airbus is expecting its new Zero Emission Development Centre (ZEDC) near Bristol will initially support around 50 jobs and be a “key project” in attracting new talent into the UK aerospace sector.
The company announced an event in London last week (May 25) it is set to develop hydrogen technologies at its site in Filton as part of efforts to decarbonise aviation.
Work has already begun in South Gloucestershire on technologies Airbus has said will be “crucial” to the performance of future aircraft powered by liquid hydrogen, which scientists and aerospace experts have said could provide cleaner, more sustainable flight.
