In France, for example, the hydrogen producer Lhyfe is operating a pilot project called SEM-REV off the coast of Saint-Nazaire, which has been producing small amounts of hydrogen since September 2022. The upshot is that a portion of the green electricity will have to be converted to other types of energy appropriate for specific applications.

New batteries with a higher energy density will be installed later on, which will increase the endurance to up to 1 hour 30 min. EADS IW prepared the battery packs, which are installed in the wings. The additional power required for take-off will be provided by the electric energy storage. and 1 hour, EADS said.
