Panel Discussion: Challenges of Testing & Certification of Hydrogen based aerospace platforms

19 September 2023 16:00 - 16:30

In this session our panel of aerospace experts will share their thoughts, ideas and experiences on how the industry can tackle the emerging challenges to bring hydrogen-powered platforms to market. Throughout the session we will cover topics including handling new materials, certification requirements, engineering skill requirements, managing safety, development timescales, supply chains.

Key questions will include

  • Which areas of test and development infrastructure need investment to make hydrogen-powered aircraft a reality?
  • What technical challenges does the aerospace sector need to meet to work with liquid hydrogen?
  • How do we create a sustainable supply of hydrogen to meet growing demand?
The discussion will be co-chaired by Nathan Nims, Business Manager, Digitalisation for Aerospace and Defence, NI and Ben Sampson, Editor, Aerospace Testing International.
