Hyundai Rotem has secured its first contract for supplying hydrogen trams of the H2 model to the city administration of Daejeon, South Korea. The agreement entails the delivery of 34 trams to be operational on the city's second metro line between 2026 and 2028. These hydrogen trams feature an innovative hybrid traction system with hydrogen fuel cells and batteries for regenerative energy storage, providing a range of 200 kilometers on a single refuel. The chemical reaction process in the tram's fuel cells purifies the air, contributing to improved air quality in urban areas. The contract, valued at $201 million, also includes the installation of signaling and traffic management systems by Hyundai Rotem. With each tram capable of purifying a significant amount of air, the introduction of these environmentally friendly transport solutions underscores a positive step towards reducing harmful emissions and enhancing urban air quality. Hyundai Rotem's development of the hydrogen tram, unveiled at the Korea Railways & Logistics Fair in Busan, demonstrates a commitment to sustainable urban transport solutions.
