flag Fortescue may hit its 2030 fossil fuel goal early using giant battery-powered trains that cut diesel use by a million liters yearly.

flag Fortescue, a major Australian iron ore miner, says it may achieve its 2030 goal of eliminating fossil fuels from operations ahead of schedule, thanks to two battery-powered locomotives. flag These trains are powered by what the company calls the world’s largest land-mobile battery, expected to cut diesel use by about one million litres annually. flag The innovation is part of Fortescue’s broader decarbonisation strategy, aiming to reduce emissions in its mining and transport operations. flag While details on scaling and deployment remain limited, the company remains optimistic and continues monitoring the technology’s performance.
