Sakhalin will be the first Russian region to test passenger trains powered by hydrogen. The innovative composition of the model 62-4584, created at the Transmashholding factories, is ready for sea trials. In 2027 it will be held for the first time in Moscow and the Moscow region, then continue on the island. The start of operation is planned exclusively for 2027 - early 2028. Unlike the diesel train, the new technology uses electricity produced by the reaction of hydrogen with oxygen. Fuel cells produce water, not exhaust gases. The technology is especially promising for non-electric railways. On Sakhalin, special infrastructure and a hydrogen cluster were created in the local Technopark for its implementation. The islands continue to work to reduce the footprint of the regional economy. The positive results have already been recorded - the region has become the first subject to be economically developed in carbon. The hydrogen train is another step in this direction.
