Speeding up decarbonisation
The decarbonisation of Fortescue Metals Group’s locomotive fleet in Australia is ramping up with the arrival of two locomotives at Fortescue Future Industries’ (FFI) research and development facility in Hazelmere, Perth.
The two four-stroke locomotives join the first two-stroke locomotive which already underwent testing earlier this year. They allow FFI’s green team to expand its development as it focuses on delivering a locomotive operating solely on green ammonia and other green renewable fuels and technologies.
The project will help Fortescue to be carbon neutral by 2030 for Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Planning is underway to deploy a demonstration locomotive in rail operations in 2022, Fortescue said. (ben)
