9 nov 2022 ano - (US) Argonne & Oak Ridge national laboratories collaborate with Wabtec on H2 train

Descrição:

As the United States shifts away from fossil fuel burning cars and trucks, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are exploring options for another form of transportation: trains. The research focuses on zero carbon hydrogen and other low-carbon fuels as viable alternatives to diesel for the rail industry.

Both laboratories have entered into cooperative research and development agreements with Wabtec, a leading manufacturer of freight locomotives. The Argonne and Wabtec agreement also includes Convergent Science, a software developer. The project will run for four years.

Researchers from the multidisciplinary team kicked off the project and celebrated the installation of rail technology company Wabtec’s single cylinder dual-fuel locomotive engine in the National Transportation Research Center, a DOE-designated user facility located at ORNL, during a Nov. 9 event.
