- ZeroAvia Emerges from Stealth with the Largest Zero-Emission Airplane Flying Today: Zero emission aircraft could be fueled by hydrogen produced locally using renewable electricity. Airports have lots of open land where solar farms could collect electricity to fuel hydrogen electrolysis equipment, surely. That's the message by ZeroAvia, who is developing a fuel cell based drive train for medium size electric airplanes. Their test mule, pictured here, is a six passenger Piper M-Class aircraft. Clearly they intend to supply drive trains to existing airplane manufacturers. The selling point is lower fuel cost than using regular jetfuel. The founder, Val Miftakhov, previously launched Electric Motor Werks and in 2017 he sold that company to ENEL.
