National Energy Technology Laboratory
Description
The Department of Energy (DOE) National Energy
Technology Laboratory (NETL), on
behalf of the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy¿s (EERE)
Office
of Vehicle Technologies (OVT) Program, is seeking applications for grants
to
establish development, demonstration, evaluation, and education projects to
accelerate the market introduction and penetration of advanced electric
drive
vehicles. DOE¿s goal is for the vehicles and electric technologies to
achieve
a fast market introduction and reach high volume production.
A key objective of the OVT program is to accelerate the development and
production of various electric drive vehicle systems to substantially
reduce
petroleum consumption. One of the electric drive technologies that will be
emphasized in this project are Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV),
which
directly supports the President¿s goal to Get One Million Plug-In Hybrid
Cars
on the Road by 2015. Furthermore, advanced electric drive technologies
will
allow manufacturers to meet increased fuel economy standards while reducing
vehicular emissions of greenhouse gases. The resulting grants will also
meaningfully aide in the nation¿s economic recovery by creating US based
jobs
as outlined in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of
2009.
