Hydrogen is gaining traction as a sustainable alternative to petroleum in transportation, particularly with the introduction of hydrogen-powered trains in the EU. The first operational hydrogen fuel cell train began service near Frankfurt in 2018, using gray hydrogen, which cut environmental impact by 50%.

However, sustainability concerns remain. The focus is now shifting towards green hydrogen, produced from renewable energy sources, to achieve a complete 100% reduction in environmental footprint. This transition highlights the potential of hydrogen to revolutionize the transportation sector while addressing environmental challenges.
