China’s first heavy-duty hydrogen railway station<\/strong> for commercial and industrial trains was inaugurated on Sunday, June 2, in the city of Ordos, located in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first hydrogen railway station<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Batuta hydrogen station, managed by CHN Energy Investment Group<\/strong>, is designed to supply heavy shunting locomotives and catenary work vehicles. These are powered by hydrogen fuel cells and lithium-ion batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, it has the capacity to refuel 500 kilograms of hydrogen per day and up to 800 kilograms in hydrogen storage. The filling process of a hydrogen locomotive \n hydrogen locomotive takes<\/a>\n<\/strong> takes approximately 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, this station is equipped with the world’s first automatic hydrogen refueling robot<\/strong>, resistant to low temperatures and capable of operating at temperatures down to -25 degrees Celsius. This feature ensures efficient and reliable operation throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Operational benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This station has great potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. It is estimated that its operation will allow a reduction of approximately 800 tons of CO\u2082 per year, contributing to climate change mitigation efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hydrogen-powered locomotives can operate continuously for eight hours on a single charge and have an uncharged range of up to 800 kilometers.<\/p>\n\n\n
