Enhancing a rail carrier’s hydrogen infrastructure


Atco, a Canadian corporation with investments in logistics, is constructing two hydrogen production and refuelling facilities in Alberta (Canada) for Canadian Pacific (CP). The hydrogen infrastructure at each CP site in Calgary and Edmonton will include a 1 MW electrolyser, compression, storage and dispensing for locomotive refuelling.

 

In Calgary, the electrolyser will be powered in part by renewable electricity from CP’s existing 5 MW solar power facility co-located at CP headquarters. Construction will begin later this year and will be completed in 2023.

 

The facilities will advance CP’s hydrogen locomotive programme, which has set its sights on building North America's first line-haul hydrogen-powered freight locomotive, CP said. (ben)
