Fyodor Apollonovich Pirotsky (Russian: Фёдор Аполлонович Пироцкий; February 17 [O.S. March 1] 1845 – February 28 [O.S. March 12] 1898), or Fedir Apollonovych Pirotskyy (Ukrainian: Федір Аполлонович Піроцький) was a Russian engineer of Ukrainian ancestry, inventor of the world's first railway electrification system and electric tram[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] While the commercialization of his inventions in the Russian Empire was relatively slow, Pirotsky is known to have met with Carl Heinrich von Siemens and influenced Siemens' eventual introduction of the first regular electric tram line (for the Berlin Straßenbahn).
