  This paper proposes a framework to analyze the concept of power to hydrogen
(P2H) for fueling the next generation of aircraft. The impact of introducing
new P2H loads is investigated from different aspects namely, cost, carbon
emission, and wind curtailment. The newly introduced electric load is
calculated based on the idea of replacing the busiest international flight
route in the Europe, Dublin-London Heathrow, by hydrogen fuel-powered aircraft
as a high potential candidate for the next generation of air travel systems to
cope with the ambitious targets set in Europe Flight Path 2050 by the Advisory
Council for Aeronautics Research in Europe (ACARE). The simulation is performed
on a representative Irish transmission network to demonstrate the effectiveness
of the proposed solution.
