CPKC today released its "Climate Insights" report, an overview of the Class I's governance and strategic approach to climate change.

The 2026 report provides an overview of CPKC's processes to identify, assess and manage climate-related risks and opportunities, CPKC officials said in a press release. The report replaces CPKC's 2021 Climate Strategy and 2023 Commitment to Climate Action, consolidating CPKC's approach to climate governance, risk management and emissions reductions within a single document, they added.

Also today, CPKC published its second "Climate Mileposts" report, which serves as the railroad's performance-focused climate action supplement. That 2026 report highlights several of the Class I's recent climate-related actions, including:
• deployment of 100 new Tier 4 locomotives and expanded use of energy management technologies;
• ongoing real-world testing and fueling infrastructure expansion for the hydrogen locomotive fleet;
• issuing results from a climate scenario analysis of the combined CPKC network; and
• network capacity and resilience improvements supported by siding extensions, track upgrades and advanced inspection technologies.

"These reports showcase CPKC's dedication to responsible growth and leadership in climate action, reflecting our vision for a more sustainable rail network across North America through innovation and environmental stewardship," said President and CEO Keith Creel.
