China's first hydrogen locomotive for commercial use has started its trial operation in Liupanshui City, Guizhou Province, filling a significant gap in southwest China's hydrogen-powered rail freight transportation. The locomotive is currently engaged in shunting operation at the city's Meijin Railway Station. It boasts the capability to run 140 to 150 kilometers at a time after a charge of 60 kilograms of hydrogen, with a substantial hauling capacity exceeding 4,500 tonnes. This development signifies a major step towards cleaner and more efficient freight transportation in the region. Concurrently, on the same day, 100 hydrogen heavy trucks and four hydrogen fuel cell buses were also introduced in Liupanshui, further promoting the adoption of hydrogen technology in various modes of transportation. This initiative reflects China's dedication to exploring sustainable energy solutions and reducing environmental impact in the transportation sector. The successful trial operation of the hydrogen locomotive highlights the potential for hydrogen to play a crucial role in the future of transportation, aligning with global efforts towards a greener and more sustainable future.
