Canadian Pacific Kansas City published its 2025 Climate Mileposts report highlighting the actions being taken by CPKC to enhance sustainability.
"Shipping by rail is the most fuel-efficient way to move goods over land and our Climate Mileposts report outlines the steps we are taking to further advance the potential for future decarbonization of the CPKC locomotive fleet," said Keith Creel, CPKC President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are committed to working towards continuously improving our locomotive operating efficiency and advancing real-world testing of H2 locomotives."
CPKC is exploring and investing in innovative technology solutions and projects to reduce emissions from our locomotive operations and support CPKC's long-term sustainability objectives, including:
Making significant strides with our pioneering H2 Locomotive Program which has swiftly progressed from initial movement trials to recording more than 6,000 miles in freight service testing by the end of 2024.
Doubling the size of their H2 test fleet in early 2025 to include three additional locomotives and an added tender car, then adding further to this test fleet with four more locomotives planned for later in 2025.
Successfully conducting more than 1,100 fueling events in 2024 as part of our B20 locomotive biofuel trial in British Columbia. This initiative, in cooperation with the broader rail industry, aims to validate the operational impacts of using advanced renewable biofuel blends.
Preparing for delivery of 100 Tier 4 diesel-electric locomotives in 2025, which are expected to reduce air pollutants and emissions and enhance fuel economy and reliability.
