Germany successfully conducted trials of the world’s first hydrogen-powered, zero-emission train in March.
The train, known as the Coradia iLint, was created by French company Alstom. It can travel up to 140 km per hour and has the capacity to carry 300 passengers.
The fuel cells on top of the train combine hydrogen and oxygen to generate electricity, which is then transferred to the lithium ion batteries inside the train.
The train only emits steam and water as byproducts, and is also 60% quieter than traditional diesel trains.
Five states in Germany will buy a total of 60 hydrogen-powered trains. Other countries including the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway and the U.K. have also expressed interest in the train.
