Kwasi Kwarteng – 2021 Comments on Liquid Hydrogen Aircraft

The comments made by Kwasi Kwarteng, the Business Secretary, on 6 December 2021.

These designs could define the future of aerospace and aviation. By working with industry, we are showing that truly carbon-free flight could be possible with hydrogen a front-runner to replace conventional fossil fuels.

Fuelling planes sustainably will enable the public to travel as we do now, but in a way that doesn’t damage the planet. It will not only help us to end our contribution to climate change, but also represents a huge industrial opportunity for the UK.
