Metrolink said it continues to pursue zero-emissions technologies of hydrogen fuel cell and battery electric, and that it “regards renewable fuel as a bridge to zero emissions.” By reducing locomotive emissions, Metrolink is easing environmental impacts on climate change and improving air quality for all.
The renewable fuel is made of recycled natural fats and vegetable oils and serves as a bridge for Metrolink’s transition to zero-emission technologies.
The European Green Deal combines the twin effort of reducing our greenhouse gas emissions and preparing Europe’s industry for a climate-neutral economy. Within this framework, hydrogen has been singled out as central for addressing both issues and for evolving our energy systems.
With additional arrivals of New Flyer Xcelsior hydrogen fuel cell buses in the past year, SunLine’s fleet now incorporates 21 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, and five more are scheduled for delivery in Summer 2022. These deliveries will keep the agency on track to be fully transitioned to zero-emission by 2035 – five years ahead of the 2040 deadline set in…
Unlike typical liquid hydrogen fueling systems, where the liquid pump is located outside of the storage tank, the NICE system features a unique design that places a submerged pump in the liquid fuel storage tank. The refueling system delivers liquid hydrogen to a dispensing control loop that vaporizes the liquid into a gas and compresses it to 450 bar pressure…
The number of announced hydrogen projects suddenly jumped at the height of Covid-19 in 2020, and then almost doubled again in 2021, van Dorsten said. Exponential growth seems set to continue — announcements from the first quarter of 2022 are already equivalent to 25% of the total project pipeline, van Dorsten said.
The Sea Change was launched into the water outside the California Bay Area in early February. It is the first commercial vessel powered entirely by hydrogen fuel cells—and a major milestone in a decades-long effort to combat the world’s emissions crisis and save companies money in the process.
