00:00A bet won, so F&M defines the first hydrogen train in Italy, the Coradia Stream of Alstom,
00:11a technological jewel that gives a simple idea, today it is a concrete reality, a reality
00:15on the track that sets itself as an open track for a process of decarbonization of transport
00:20on iron that will contribute to the complex process of energy transition of our country,
00:26to give there the Lombardy.
00:28Since last January 23, the hydrogen train has arrived in Bresciano, in the new maintenance plant
00:34in which the refueling tests for the innovative convoy are underway.
00:38We started six years ago with an idea, today it has become a project that has become a standard
00:44not only for Italy but for the whole of Europe and we are proud that this is happening in Lombardy.
00:50Let's call it a formal reunion between the train and its part, let's say hidden,
00:57which is the infrastructure on which we are very proud because it is our project,
01:02that of building a series of plants for the production, storage and distribution of hydrogen
01:10which is unique as a model at the European level.
01:13To see the hydrogen train take off, it will have to wait until 2026,
01:17but the goal that pushed the ambitious project is well outlined.
01:22The goal was a modernization of the line and decarbonization.
01:28Naturally, hydrogen meets these requirements,
01:31it allows not to interrupt the line during work,
01:34it allows a very significant cost reduction
01:37and I also want to underline how there will be a direct supply on the line
01:42in the production and distribution plants that are in Brescia, Iseo and Etolo.
01:47Here we are in the solution, I also like to use the term of a custom suit
01:52for such a particular line as that of the Valcamonica,
01:56which is a UNESCO heritage that we all want to preserve from a sustainable efficiency point of view.
02:05Around the innovative train, ad-hoc infrastructures will be built for the supply of hydrogen.
02:12The sites are in Borgo San Giovanni, in Etolo and Pisogne.
02:18To build the three plants where not only the distribution will be done,
02:23but also the hydrogen will be created,
02:28that is, there will also be the creation of hydrogen,
02:31so this is a very important fact.
02:33Hydrogen, in fact, decarbonizes the network,
02:38a network that I remember is diesel,
02:40so with an environmental value that is certainly not exemplary.
02:47With hydrogen, on the other hand, we will be the first case in Italy,
02:51certainly, but even in Europe.
