    According to foreign media news, Belgium's first train with wind power as the main power has been officially put into use recently, opening the curtain
    on the era of wind trains.

    The local plan is to gradually increase the number of wind trains, and the ultimate goal is 170, accounting for 5% of the total number of trains in the country, to contribute to reducing carbon dioxide emissions
    .

    The first wind train was reportedly run from Höhelom in the province of Limburg and operated
    on electricity from the wind farm next to the railway.
    The park has 7 wind turbines, 2/3 of the electricity is used by trains, and the remaining 1/3 is used in the area
    .
    The electricity produced in the park can reduce CO2 emissions
    by 15,000 tons per year.
    It is reported that Belgium plans to gradually increase the number of wind turbines
    to 25 in the future.
