Alstom: Nestlé Waters will use a hydrogen freight train


(CercleFinance.com) – Alstom announces that from 2025, Nestlé Waters France will use the first hydrogen-powered freight train thanks to an innovative solution developed by Alstom and ENGIE, the group said in a press release.

The objective is to circulate, from the Vosges plant, the first hydrogen-powered freight train using a hydrogen generator wagon system designed by Alstom and supplied with renewable hydrogen by ENGIE.

Alstom estimates that this project should enable Nestlé Waters to reduce emissions by 10,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year.

This solution will make it possible to carry out all the freight journeys with the same electric locomotive, powered by the catenary on the electrified main lines and by the hydrogen generator wagon in the non-electrified areas, specifies Alstom.
