Preferred Integration of Alternative Power Systems for UAVs
The continuous use of such non-renewable energy sources such as gasoline and jet fuel makes them scarce and expensive owing to their limited supply. Hence, owing to the depletion of fossil fuels, researchers are looking for alternative sources of fuel that will help power UAVs. The continuous improvement in technology and involvement from various industry leaders have made the development of fuel cells for UAV successful. For instance, China-based MicroMultiCopter Aero Technology developed a military drone, HyDrone 1800, which features a next-gen hydrogen technology that allows it to operate in extreme weather conditions with efficiency. The drone performs functions, such as intelligence gathering, border patrol, aerial fire support, laser designation, and battle management services. The inclination toward deploying UAVs has also contributed to the growth of solar-powered UAVs.
