We're going to talk about the the big traction shift that's coming. We're going to talk a little bit about the the hype cycle and where we might be on that hype cycle and how we can avoid some of the negative stuff that happens with a hype cycle. We're going to try and define discontinuous electrification. We're going to talk about the the new traction jargon that we all need to learn to to to use...
I'm going to try and break it down into seven modes of discontinuous electrification, going to talk about whether it should be temporary or permanent. I'm going to talk about the challenges with system integration with DE. And by the way, I am going to be calling it DE because discontinuous electrification is 11 syllables and we've only got an hour. So I'm sorry that's my contribution to the the railway jargon lexicon...
We're going to be talking about some of the compromises you make because as with any engineering choice there are compromises and we're going to talk about what they are and we're going to talk about the forgotten customer which is freight in relation to DE, and then we'll finish with some appropriate use cases for DE.
