Özet
New fuel and propulsion technologies are being proposed to find suitable alternatives to fossil fuels and new green energy production methods, such as batterypowered and hydrogen-powered aircraft, hybrid systems, and synthetic fuels. Various processes can produce hydrogen, but achieving a low maximum take-off mass is the biggest challenge. Fuel cell aircraft have a low power-to-weight ratio, and the cost of depreciation, interest, and insurance is proportional to the price of the aircraft; also, a viable and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional aircraft, with safety considerations, regulatory issues, ground infrastructure, and government and public acceptance.
