On November 20, 2024, Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) and ATCO EnPower announced the completion and full operational status of two hydrogen production and refuelling facilities in Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta. These facilities are a crucial component of CPKC's innovative Hydrogen Locomotive Program.
The program involves retrofitting diesel locomotives with hydrogen fuel cells, enabling them to operate without directly generating emissions. Each new facility is equipped with a 1-megawatt (MW) electrolyzer, along with compression, storage, and dispensing systems for locomotive refuelling.
The Calgary electrolyzer is partially powered by renewable electricity from CPKC's existing 5 MW solar power facility, co-located at its headquarters. These stations are expected to serve as a model for future projects, advancing CPKC's efforts toward a lower-carbon transportation future and enhancing its sustainability objectives.
