NREL Electric Vehicle/Infrastructure Webinar
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory will be holding a webinar on March 24, 2010 from 11-12:30am MT and will feature a vehicle and infrastructure discussion by Jim Francfort, INL and Don Karner, eTEC. Jim works on DOE's Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity (AVTA) conducted jointly by the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The AVTA is part of the Department of Energy’s Vehicle Technologies Program. The primary goal of AVTA is to provide benchmark data for technology modeling, and research and development programs, by benchmarking and validating the performance of light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles that feature one or more advanced technologies, including:
• Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle technologies
• Hybrid electric, pure electric, and hydraulic technologies
• Advanced electric drive technologies and engine technologies
• Advanced energy storage (i.e., batteries) technologies and chemistries
• Advanced climate control, power electronic, and other ancillary systems technologies
• Internal combustion engines burning advanced fuels (i.e., 100% hydrogen and hydrogen/CNG-blended fuels)
Also contributing to this effort is Don Karner, President/CEO of eTEC, of Phoenix, AZ. eTEC was mentioned by President Obama in his latest State of the Union Address and is the project manager for a DOE ARRA grant that includes 40+ project partners that will conduct the largest-ever rollout of electric vehicle infrastructure in the United States.
Jim and Don will give an overview of issues that will be of interest to many coordinators with respect to establishing electric recharging strategies in their communities. Particular areas of interest covered include types of recharging systems available, battery electric and plug-in electric vehicles and their timing for market introduction, the current state of deployment issues such as codes and standards, permitting, standardized training and more.

Back from Washington DC
We made it back from our trip to Washington. We had a highly productive week meeting with other Clean Cities Coalitions, supporters, and politicians. We were able to meet with Senator Hatch, Congressman Matheson, Congressman Bishop, and staff of Senator Bennett and Congressman Chaffetz. Now we will have to just wait and see what happens in Washington!

Energy Independence Days
Hello from Washington DC! Robin and I are attending Energy Independence Days with our fellow coalitions from across the nation to work and help educate our policy makers on what we do. Tomorrow we will be meeting Senators Bennett and Hatch as well as Congressmen Matheson, Bishop, and Chaffetz, to help educate them on everything Clean Cities has done and has the potential to do in Utah.
