On the morning of March 21st, the world's first hydrogen-powered urban train, independently developed by CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co., Ltd., conducted a full-load operation test at a speed of 160 kilometers per hour on the test line in Changchun, China.

During the test, the train achieved a speed of 160 km/h, with an average energy consumption of only 5 kWh per kilometer, and a maximum cruising range of over 1000 kilometers.

According to reports, this test also validated the practical performance of hydrogen trains in temperatures ranging from minus 25 to 35 degrees Celsius. The test results met all the vehicle design requirements, with performance indicators reaching international leading levels.

Compared to traditional internal combustion-powered urban vehicles, hydrogen-powered urban trains can achieve a reduction of 50,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions over their entire lifecycle, equivalent to the emissions produced by 50,000 cars driving 5000 kilometers each.

Hydrogen-powered urban transportation offers advantages such as environmental cleanliness, simple operation and maintenance, short construction periods, and minimal fixed investment. It features high speed, large capacity, rapid boarding and alighting, and intelligent safety characteristics.

3月21日上午，由中车长春轨道客车股份有限公司自主研制的全球首列氢能源市域列车，在位于长春市的中车长客试验线上进行了时速160公里满载运行试验。首次实现了时速160公里氢能列车全系统、全场景、多层级性能验证。至此，氢能在轨道交通领域应用取得新突破。当日试验过程中，列车以160km/h的速度运行，列车每公里实际运行平均能耗仅为5kWh，最高续航里程可达1000km以上。
中车长客国家轨道客车工程研究中心新技术研究部副部长王健介绍，此次试验还首次验证了氢能列车在零下25℃至35℃环境温度下的实际性能，试验结果中各指标均达到车辆设计要求，车辆性能指标达到国际领先水平。
相关数据显示，相对于传统内燃动力市域车辆，氢能源市域列车全寿命周期可实现5万吨二氧化碳减排，相当于5万辆汽车各开5000公里所产生的排放。
氢能市域交通具有清洁环保、运维简单、建设周期短、固定投资少等优势，具备高速度、大运量、快速乘降、安全智慧等特点。列车的动力特性与市域交通“快速运行、快启快停、快速乘降、舒适度高”的要求完美契合，能够进一步助力实现都市圈内城轨、市域（郊）互联互通，适用于“市中心-市中心”一站直达零换乘等应用场景。氢能源市域列车的成功研制，引领了市域交通绿色低碳发展新方向，带动氢能源相关产业链的良性循环和创新发展。
