  • Heavy Haul Freight Transportation System: Autohaul Autonomous Heavy Haul Freight Train Achieved in Australia
    FEATURED ARTICLES Advanced Railway Systems through Digital Technology Heavy Haul Freight Transportation System: AutoHaul Autonomous Heavy Haul Freight Train Achieved in Australia There are many iron ore rail lines in the Pilbara region, located in North-West Australia. Global mining company Rio Tinto Limited operates a fleet of heavy haul iron ore trains 24 hours a day from its 16 mines to four port terminals overlooking the Indian Ocean. To increase their operational capacity and reduce transportation time, Rio Tinto realized that driverless (GoA4) operation of its trains was the way to achieve this. The company established a framework agreement with Hitachi Rail STS S.p.A. This project was named AutoHaul, and two companies worked closely on its development over several years. Since completing the first loaded run in July 2018, these trains have now safely travelled more than 11 million km autonomously. The network is the world’s first driverless heavy haul long distance train operation.

  • The Heralds of Hydrogen: the Economicfc Heading Sectors That Heading Are Driving the Hydrogen Economyfc Subheading in Subheading Europe
    January 2021 The Heralds of Hydrogen: The economicFC Heading sectors that Heading are driving the hydrogen economyFC Subheading in Subheading Europe I. Introduction The 2019 International Energy Agency (IEA) report on the future of hydrogen highlighted the renewed interest in hydrogen as a potential pathway to a zero-carbon future.1 Since then, many new projects have started and many investment programmes reaching into the billions of euros have been announced, such as the earmarked fund of €9 billion for hydrogen as part of the COVID-19 recovery effort by the German government.2 Yet, uncertainty remains about the precise role of hydrogen in European visions of the energy transition. This raises questions about the support base of the hydrogen economy in Europe. What prompts companies as diverse as for instance Airbus, BP, Enagás, Fincantieri, Linde, Siemens, Škoda, SNCF, and Thyssenkrupp to become members of hydrogen associations? Which economic sectors stand out among supporters of the hydrogen transition? What is the role of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)? These are all relevant questions. The momentum for hydrogen comes at a time when policymakers at the subnational, national and supranational level are faced with the task of reviving their economies in response to the COVID-19 crisis. The European Commission revealed its official hydrogen strategy in July 2020.3 Hydrogen is supposed to become one of the key pillars of the European Green Deal, announced just before the COVID-19 crisis started. Many national policymakers are working on hydrogen too, with recent strategies published in France and Germany, for example.

  • 26 September 2018 ITM Power Opens Seventh Hydrogen Refuelling Station at Johnson Matthey's Swindon Site on M4 Corridor ITM
    26 September 2018 ITM Power Opens Seventh Hydrogen Refuelling Station at Johnson Matthey’s Swindon site on M4 corridor ITM Power (AIM: ITM), the energy storage and clean fuel company, and Johnson Matthey (FTSE: JMAT), a global leader in science that enables cleaner and healthier world, are pleased to announce the opening of ITM Power’s seventh public access hydrogen refuelling station (HRS) located at Johnson Matthey, Swindon on the M4 corridor. The opening was supported by Toyota, Hyundai and Honda who also presented and participated in a Q&A session. Attendees were also able to experience a zero emission journey in a Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) Ride and Drive which was available at the opening. About the new M4 Swindon Hydrogen Refuelling Station: The new Swindon HRS is ITM Power’s seventh public access HRS and joins Cobham on the M25, Beaconsfield on the M40, Rainham in Kent on the A14, Teddington in London, Rotherham on the M1 and Kirkwall in Orkney. Located at Johnson Matthey in Swindon, which is home to the company’s fuel cell component manufacturing facility, the new HRS lies just off the M4 linking South Wales with London. It is now open for public and private fleets operating fuel cell electric vehicles. The station uses electricity via a renewable energy contract and water to generate hydrogen on-site with no need for deliveries. The Pan European H2ME2 project: The new HRS is the first of two stations in the UK to be deployed as part of the pan European H2ME2 project, which was funded by the European Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCHJU) and the Office of Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV).
