<p>The Government’s Jet Zero Strategy, published in July 2022, set out our approach
to achieving net zero UK aviation by 2050 through multiple different measures. The
use of hydrogen is considered in the Zero Emission Flight chapter of the Strategy.</p><p>
</p><p>The Strategy anticipates that hydrogen will be first deployed in short haul
aviation with recognised uncertainty on the potential for and timing of its scaling
up for use in long haul. As with all measures in the Jet Zero Strategy the Government
keeps the evidence base under regular review and any changes will be reflected in
future updates to the Strategy.</p><p> </p><p>Between 2013 and 2030, industry and
government will invest over £5 billion to develop transformational aircraft technology
through the Aerospace Technology Institute Programme. This includes co-investment
in industry led projects to develop hydrogen aircraft in the UK.</p><p> </p><p>In
2022 a Delivery Group of the government and industry forum the Jet Zero Council was
established to accelerate the adoption of zero emission flight.</p>
