🚄 We’re excited to share that the new study by the European Commission highlights the momentum behind hyperloop technology — and why Canada, especially Alberta, is primed to lead.

🔍 Key findings from the study:

* Core subsystems are reaching TRL 6-7, with full systems and vacuum tracks within reach by the 2030s.
* Tube Transportation could reduce GHG emissions per passenger-km by up to 90% compared to aviation.
* The study calls for standardization, regulatory sandboxes, and pilot projects now to pave the way for large-scale deployment later.

🇨🇦 Why this matters for Canada:
At TransPod, we’re actively developing our Alberta test-track and supporting ecosystem to bring tube transportation from concept to reality. With the right partnership from Alberta Transportation and Transport Canada, Canada can become a global leader in ultra-fast, sustainable transportation.

🔧 Call to action:

* Alberta Transportation: Let’s collaborate on advancing the TransPod infrastructure corridor planning.
* Transport Canada: Let’s work together to establish regulatory sandboxes and certification frameworks so Canada is ahead of the curve.

New EU study assesses progress and prospects for hyperloop technology The European Commission presented today a new fact-finding study assessing the current state of the European hyperloop sector and exploring possible avenues for EU support.

’s future of travel is taking shape! 🌎✈️➡️🚄

We’re proud to announce a major partnership with Algoma Steel and Supreme Steel to build the first ultra-high-speed TransPod Line between and .

This historic project will create jobs, boost ’s economy, support Canadian steel, and offer a cleaner, faster, more affordable way to travel.

Highlights:
👉 140,000 jobs during construction
👉 $19.2B GDP impact
👉 Lower fares than air travel
👉 Huge CO₂ savings every year

Together, we’re building a transportation system that future generations will be proud of.

🚀 TransPod’s February Highlights!

It’s been an exciting month for us at TransPod! Here’s what we’ve been up to:

👉 Our CTO at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT):
Last week, Ryan Janzen gave an incredible talk at MIT about aerospace vehicle design, high-speed plasma technology, and entrepreneurship. He also met with professors and students to discuss future projects and opportunities, plus toured several MIT labs. The interest in our work is growing in Canada, Europe, and beyond, and we couldn’t be more excited!

👉 Showcased at 3DEXPERIENCE World:
At the Dassault Systèmes event in Houston, TransPod was featured at Lenovo's booth. Huge thanks to our amazing partner Lenovo for showcasing our work on a global stage! 🌍✨

👉 On CBC Calgary:
Our CEO, Sebastien Gendron, joined CBC Calgary to discuss how high-speed rail investments in Canada could transform transportation—and what it means for our Alberta project. Don’t miss the interview! 🎙️ Listen here.
