ZeroAvia and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines (KLM) have announced they will work towards a demonstration flight using ZeroAvia’s ZA2000 zero-emission, hydrogen-electric engines for large regional turboprops. Hydrogen-electric engines use hydrogen in fuel cells to generate electricity, which powers electric motors to turn the aircraft’s propellers. The only emission is low-temperature water vapour, leading to an
