NEOM’s Hydrogen-Powered Rail is Here – And CIMC MENA is Powering the Green Logistics Revolution
NEOM’s Hydrogen-Powered Rail is Here – And CIMC MENA is Powering the Green Logistics Revolution
Today, Saudi Arabia launched the NEOM Hydrogen Rail – the world’s first 100% green hydrogen-powered freight corridor. This $18B megaproject will slash carbon emissions by 4.5 million tons annually, and CIMC MENA is proud to deliver the modular hydrogen storage terminals that make this possible.
🔧 Our Breakthroughs:
Cryo-Adapted Containers: Withstand NEOM’s desert extremes (-5°C nights to 50°C days) while maintaining hydrogen purity at 99.999%.
Localized Tech Transfer: 80% of components manufactured at our new Tabuk facility, employing 1,200+ Saudi engineers.
AI-Driven Safety: Real-time leak detection systems co-developed with Saudi Aramco.
🌐 Why This Matters:
This rail isn’t just moving goods – it’s moving Saudi Arabia toward Vision 2030’s zero-carbon logistics vision.
