Universal Hydrogen was a company co-founded by Jason Chua, John-Paul Clarke, Paul Eremenko and Jon Gordon, who had previously worked together at Airbus and Raytheon Technologies, with the ambition of making hydrogen-powered flight a reality within a decade.

[1][2] A maiden flight of a Dash 8 aircraft modified on one side with a hydrogen fuel cell powertrain (including Plug Power fuel cells and a motor from magniX), took place on March 2, 2023; the flight demonstration represented the largest aircraft ever to cruise mainly on hydrogen power.

[3][4][5][6] The company was wound up in June 2024 after failing to secure further funding.

[7] The company's main product was intended to be a conversion kit to be retrofitted to existing aircraft to allow them to run on hydrogen fuel.

The kits were to consist of hydrogen storage tank modules made by the company, combined with an electric motor made by magniX and fuel cells made by Plug Power.
