Hosted by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), the first ever Sustainable Transportation Summit will bring together transportation and mobility leaders to discuss the technology, policy, and market innovations that hold the potential to shape the transportation system of the future.

This year’s summit will highlight progress and achievements in R&D, and bringing new technologies to market.  It will also serve as a forum to share perspectives on opportunities to accelerate the commercialization and deployment of advanced transportation technologies and smart mobility systems over the next decade.

Come hear from industry, government, and academic thought leaders on topics including:

  • Pathways to Deep Decarbonization in Transportation—meeting the administration’s bold targets for reducing U.S. greenhouse gas emissions 83% by 2050.
  • Adoption of New Vehicle Technology—influencing consumer decisions and behavior to support energy efficiency and low-carbon objectives.
  • Net-Zero Carbon Fuels—enabling the production of new fuels from sunlight and CO2 via scientific breakthroughs.
  • The Future of Mobility—realizing an interconnected and intelligent transportation system for the safe and efficient movement of people and goods.

EERE advances the development of next-generation technologies to reduce the cost and improve the performance of plug-in electric and other alternative-fuel vehicles, improve advanced combustion engines and vehicle efficiency, and enable low-carbon, domestically-produced transportation fuels.  Through parallel tracks on day two, EERE’s Vehicle, Bioenergy, and Fuel Cell Technologies Offices will engage with key stakeholders on some of its highest profile, transformative initiatives, including:
