UBER - Ultra-high power Battery for low Emission Rail

Uber(用于低排放轨道的超高功率电池)项目旨在首次展示Echion的XNO(Tm)电池化学作为某些级别的电池电动列车的首选电池技术。优步的目标是这场比赛的主题1。具体地说，优步的目标是展示XNO(Tm)对客运列车的适用性，这种列车可以由交流架空电气化提供动力，并从架空电线(或另一种形式的轨道旁电源--例如第三轨)为电池充电，然后在路线的非电气化路段以纯电池模式运行。这种列车的一个例子是由优步的合作伙伴运输设计国际公司(TDI)开发的革命非常轻轨(Revsion VLR)。

Project UBER (Ultra-high power Battery for low Emission Rail), aims to demonstrate for the first time, Echion's XNO(tm) battery chemistry as the preferred battery technology for certain classes of battery electric trains. It targets Theme 1 of this competition.Specifically, UBER aims to demonstrate the suitability of XNO(tm) for passenger trains that can be powered by the AC overhead electrification and charge a battery from the overhead wire (or another form of 'standard' trackside power -- e.g. 3rd rail), to then run in battery-only mode on unelectrified section of a route. An example of such a train is the Revolution Very Light Rail (Revolution VLR) developed by Transport Design International (TDI), who is a partner in UBER.
