About this project
The description is as the source gives it.
Union Pacific has begun testing hydrogen fuel cell backup generators to replace gasoline-powered units for railroad crossing signals and gates during power outages. The only emission is water vapor, supporting the company's science-based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 26% by 2030. Evidence: "Using hydrogen generators on our system instead of traditional gasoline-powered generators will help Union Pacific reach its science-based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 26% by 2030." — https://www.up.com/news/service/hydrogen-powered-generators-it-231227
