It is important to match the technology to the use case rather than seeking one overall winner. Hydrogen will complement, not compete with, electric fuel systems across road and rail. It may play a part in rail, HGV and bus systems, where cost and access offers advantages over electric.

The decarbonization challenge facing the rail industry is a substantial one. While rail is the one cleanest form of mass transport, many rail systems still rely at least partly on diesel. With 53% of the industry’s energy consumption in 2022 coming from fossil fuels, there is an urgent need for cleaner alternatives. Electrification is the gold-standard solution, but not always feasible. In cases, traction batteries can provide the practical and immediate answer: designed for high power and reliability, these batteries maximize energy efficiency for electric and hybrid trains, on both electrified and non-electrified tracks. Their high energy density and lightweight form deliver extended operational ranges while reducing emissions and costs. Explore how this advanced, flexible technology is shaping sustainable and efficient rail networks globally in Electric & Hybrid Rail Technology’s article by Edgar Keller, President at ABB Traction.

Recently came across a very interesting post of use of EV Vs Fossil fuels(Petrol/Diesel) as source of energy in vehicular transportation. The given analysis will depict that we as a country might still be far from development of complete electrical infrastructure to control the carbon emissions and reduce the carbon footprint :- #electricvehicles #cleanenergy #carbonemisson #carbonfootprint

🇺🇸 California is set to move closer to #zeroemission transportation with the help of a brand new statewide #hydrogen refueling network. Air Products has unveiled a plan to build a corridor of stations stretching the length of California, north to the south, which will have the capacity to fuel up to 200 heavy-duty trucks or 2,000 cars per day. 🚚🚙 The U.S. state has been at the helm of hydrogen #mobility, registering 13,000 #fuelcell electric vehicles in April 2023. Such key infrastructure marks another development for California’s ambition to become a global hub for #cleanhydrogen. 🌎 https://lnkd.in/eERGNPFb

🚂 The evolution of fuel for trains in the US is a fascinating journey through engineering innovation. From steam to diesel to electric, each advancement has transformed the railway industry. Key Stages of Train Fuel Evolution: - Steam Engines: In the 19th century, steam engines powered by coal were the first major advancement, revolutionizing transportation with their ability to haul heavy loads over long distances. - Diesel Engines: In the mid-20th century, diesel engines replaced steam engines. They were more efficient, required less maintenance, and could run longer distances without stopping for fuel. - Electric Trains: Today, electric trains are becoming more prevalent, especially in urban and high-speed rail systems. They offer a cleaner, more efficient alternative with lower emissions and reduced environmental impact. - Hydrogen Fuel Cells: Looking to the future, hydrogen fuel cells are being explored as a sustainable option. They produce zero emissions and can be refueled quickly, combining the benefits of electric and diesel engines. The journey of train fuel evolution highlights the continuous innovation in engineering, striving for efficiency, sustainability, and environmental responsibility. #EngineeringHistory #SustainableTransport #Innovation
