Start-up claims the cheapest and cleanest way to transport H2 over long distances will be hydrogen-powered zeppelins.
The dramatic explosion of the Hindenburg hydrogen airship in New Jersey in 1937 may have tainted public opinion about the safety of H2 for decades, but that has not prevented a US start-up from forging ahead with plans for a new generation of hydrogen-powered zeppelins.
