Description
Plug Power Inc. along with Airbus, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), and Delta Air Lines have joined forces to study the feasibility of a hydrogen-based hub at the airport. The feasibility study was announced in May 2024 and it was launched in early 2024.
The study aims to define the infrastructure, operational viability, and safety and security requirements needed to implement hydrogen as a fuel source for future aircraft operations at ATL. It is scheduled for completion at the end of 2026.
Plug Power’s plant in Woodbine, Georgia, could supply green hydrogen to the airport.
