Event – Network Meeting for the Overhead Line Projects

On December 11th, our team co-organized the “Networking Meeting for Overhead Line Projects” in Frankfurt, bringing together over 100 participants to discuss the future of overhead line technology. Our project leader Gordon Witham presented our project and showcased our retrofitted battery-electric truck “Willi”. The event featured workshops on the field trial results, a plenary session on introducing overhead line technology, and an expert panel with Arjan van Vliet (Ministerie van Infrastructuur en Waterstaat), Axel Hausen (Netze BW GmbH) and Jörg Salomon (Deutsche Post DHL Group), discussing the “Pathways for Introducing Overhead Line Technology“. After the event, we continued our field trials on the A5 throughout the remaining week before going into our well deserved Christmas break.
