Booklet: R&D More electric and hydrogen-electric powered aerospace
Hydrogen as a fuel is considered to be an important route towards future sustainable aviation. For aviation
applications, hydrogen presents several key advantages: it allows for the elimination of carbon emissions in
flight and along the entire life cycle. Its usage in fuel cells allows eliminating NOx and particles. When burnt
in a turbine engine, very low particle emissions can be expected, as well as reduced NOx emissions, provided that the combustion system is optimised. However, water vapour emissions need to be carefully managed.

Booklet: Overview space capabilities
Royal NLR works closely with both industry and government on developing satellites, payloads and launchers systems and subsystems, such as thermal control systems, electronics and antennas. We also offer unique capabilities in the area of aerospace qualified lightweight composite structures and multi-metal additive manufacturing, and on the effective use of earth observation and satellite navigation data for both civil and military use.

Cutting-edge photonics for future proof microwave communication
Microwave photonics enables communication systems on satellites and aircraft to be smaller and lighter. Royal NLR and LioniX International will work together with Lockheed Martin on novel photonic solutions for microwave systems. This cutting-edge technology will speed up and improve secure communication.
