Canadian Pacific yesterday published its 2020 corporate sustainability report on progress made in three areas of focus: operating safety, maintaining operational excellence and managing its social impact.

The report includes the following:
• In 2020, CP invested $1.67 billion to further enhance network capacity and improve performance and safety.
• CP continued to invest in emissions reductions. For example, the railroad completed the installation of a 5-megawatt solar energy farm at its Calgary headquarters and announced a hydrogen locomotive program to create North America's first line-haul hydrogen locomotive prototype.
• CP established three diversity councils focused on the topics of racial, gender (including 2SLGBTQ+) and indigenous diversity.

"CP is continually looking for impactful ways to incorporate sustainability into all aspects of our business and maintain our position as a sustainability leader in the rail industry,” said CP President and CEO Keith Creel in a press release.
