Birmingham Airport says it is making progress with its plans to build a hydrogen production and refuelling facility as it opens talks with a car manufacturer about vehicle trials.
Initial concepts have been created for the refuelling facility on land at the airport in Solihull, created jointly with ZeroAvia, a British/American developer of hydrogen-electric aircraft founded in 2018.
An area of land with access to the airfield and local road network has been earmarked as a suitable location while on-site solar power is being considered as a source of renewable energy to produce the hydrogen.
