Project Heart is looking to pioneer zero-emission regional air services
A project to trial zero-carbon plane flights that includes architect Weston Williamson among its core team members has secured a £1.8m government grant to help services launch in four years’ time.
The practice is one of 10 organisations in the Project Heart consortium that is looking to trial zero-carbon, zero-emission hydrogen-electric flights between remote Scottish islands.
It said Project Heart, which stands for hydrogen-electric automated regional transport, would construct and operate the world’s first zero-emission 19-seater commercial aircraft route. The project, which will also include dedicated green hydrogen infrastructure, is targeting a start to services in 2025.
