Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has expanded its collaboration with Rolls-Royce, the British aerospace and defence giant, to advance research in hydrogen fuel technology for aviation. The partnership aims to explore hydrogen as a zero-carbon fuel alternative, addressing key challenges in fuel combustion, delivery, and system integration.
TCS will contribute engineering expertise to support Rolls-Royce in ensuring the safe operation of hydrogen-powered aviation systems. Alan Newby, Director of Research and Technology at Rolls-Royce, welcomed TCS’s involvement, highlighting their role in advancing the company’s hydrogen technology goals.
This collaboration was announced at the Farnborough International Airshow, where TCS also demonstrated its capabilities in the aviation sector.
