Canadian Pacific Kansas City has announced the commencement of its hydrogen locomotive program with the launch of two new hydrogen production and refueling stations in Calgary and Edmonton. These stations are pivotal in enabling CPKC's initiative to convert diesel locomotives into hydrogen-powered ones, thereby reducing direct emissions. The construction and operation of the stations were made possible through CPKC’s collaboration with Atco EnPower, a subsidiary of Canadian Utilities Ltd. The railway company's long-term goal is to introduce North America's first line-haul hydrogen-powered locomotive, utilizing fuel cells and batteries for cleaner operations. Unlike traditional diesel engines, the hydrogen-powered locomotives emit only water vapor, contributing positively towards environmental sustainability. CPKC already has three hydrogen-powered locomotives in operation, marking a significant step towards greener railway practices in Canada.
