Germany enables the first hydrogen energy train line

The first railway route in Germany was officially launched in the northern Saxony on the 24th.

According to local media reports, this is a regional line, about 100 kilometers long, and 14 hydrogen energy passenger trains "Coradia ILint" designed by French Auston and assembled in Germany. These trains use pure hydrogen as a fuel, collect oxygen from the environmental air, and convert the two gas into electrical energy in the fuel cell. When driving, only steam and condensate are generated, and the noise is very low. Previously, this line mainly operated diesel trains.

Austo said that the battery life of this train is 1,000 kilometers and the highest speed can reach 140 kilometers per hour. 1 kg of hydrogen can replace about 4.5 liters of diesel, which can significantly reduce the impact on the environment.

At the opening ceremony of Saxon Governor Stanfan Weier on the same day, this marks another milestone on the local traffic department in response to the road of climate change.

Henry Popar-La-La-Refa, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors, stated in a statement that zero-emission traffic is one of the important goals of sustainable development. The combination of advanced technology.

It is understood that this hydrogen train has received support for Germany's "National Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Battery Technology Innovation Plan". The plan is designed to develop competitive hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology in the transportation department through funding. According to Xinhua News Agency
