Does DPF pump out DC?

AIUI, it is like rectified AC – that is you get a rising edge from zero then a falling edge, then nothing, then another rising edge, etc. This is easily smoothed to DC and really shouldn’t be sent over transmission cables (even short ones) directly but should be converted either to DC or AC.

I imagine the first round of focus generators would have AC converters but due to the cost savings of DC at the point of use there will be great demand for DC services so people will pay for infrastructure upgrades in the cost of their energy. The cost will be low, look at how easily the UK installed cable TV infrastructure. Demand was not even all that great.

Let the DC be supplied from the focus generator at a high voltage and let each house have DC steppers.

Converting every peak into DC would require titanic caps or batteries, As is the caps are already needed so enough said about that, The question then becomes how much cheaper (so you claim) would be dumping the DC on to a new DC power distribution network (add in the cost of replacing the existing network) using new DC steppers to step the voltage down for homes, using new appliances in every home that can run off DC, the logistic alone say that converting to DC now would be hellishly not worth the price of having an AC converter at the reactors,
