Airbus and ZeroAvia have entered into separate Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) agreements with three of Canada’s busiest airports—Montréal–Trudeau International Airport (YUL), Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), and Vancouver International Airport (YVR)—to assess the viability of hydrogen infrastructure implementation. This development was disclosed during a press conference held at the International Aerospace Innovation Forum, hosted by Aéro Montréal.
Karine Guenan, Vice-President of ZEROe Ecosystem, said “Canada is one of the most promising regions for hydrogen hubs due to its natural resources. Canada has great potential for hydrogen production from renewable energy sources such as hydroelectric power. These first Canadian hydrogen partnerships enable us to cover the country from coast to coast. Hydrogen stands out as a key enabler as we pioneer a sustainable aviation future. We are very pleased to enter into this cooperation with partners fully engaged to take significant steps towards decarbonising aerospace. It fits perfectly with our strategy of deploying hydrogen aviation ecosystems in the most suitable parts of the world, now including North America.”
