G Warwick, JAXA pilots Japan’ future in aviation, Aviation Week & Space Technology, 12-25 November 2018, p 54
In Japan, the areas of research into aircraft propulsion include a hybrid system involving a combined-cycle/fuel cell/gas turbine complex. A high efficiency low-emissions generator burns jet fuel to produce a high-operating temperature needed for a hydrogen fuel cell generating electricity. Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) launched the Electrification Challenge for Aircraft (Eclair) in conjunction with a number of national organisations to develop electric propulsion for small aircraft in the short-to medium term, and passenger aircraft in the long term.
