1 Driving Sustainability with Technology, Information, and Tools Colorado DOT TRB Summer Meeting Caley Johnson, Center for Transportation Technologies and Systems July 29, 2008 NREL is a national laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy operated by Midwest Research Institute Battelle

2 Agenda Technology research and development Market-ready technologies Technology deployment programs Information and tools to enable technology use

3 Technology R&D Plug-in Hybrids Sustainable Transportation Algae Biofuels Cellulosic Ethanol Vehicle Efficiency Fuel Cells Process Efficiency Fuel Quality Improvements New Fuels

4 Plug-in Hybrids Researching: batteries drive cycles power electronics vehicle-to-grid applications

5 Cellulosic Ethanol NREL working on new processes and enzymes to bring costs down Big question When? 1 st plant operational February 2008 (1.5M gallons) DOE goal to be cost competitive by 2012 DOE currently funding $240 million to 9 cellulosic plants.

6 Algae Biofuels Can use wastewater, CO 2 from power plants, and non-arable land. Most productive replacement for diesel and jet fuel 10 to 50 times more oil per acre than soy and palm DOE & NREL took a break from because not competitive with $40/bbl oil.

7 Market-ready Technologies Idle Reduction VMT Reduction Ethanol Natural Gas Biodiesel Electric Cars Hydrogen Vehicle Efficiency Propane Hybrid Electric Vehicles

8 Corn Ethanol Lifecycle petroleum use 70% less than reformulated gasoline E85 s lifecycle GHG emissions ~20% less than reformulated gasoline One of many factors increasing retail food costs Sustainable? 2005: Our take this is one step toward geopolitical, economic, and environmental sustainability. 2006: Media s take this will save the world! 2008: Media s take this will destroy the world! 2008: Our take this is one step toward sustainability and will enable a quick integration of cellulosic ethanol.

9 Compressed Natural Gas GHG emissions 25-30% less than reformulated gasoline Petroleum use ~100% less than reformulated gasoline Cost is less tied to oil than any other fuel Cost per GGE $5.00 $4.50 $4.00 $3.50 $3.00 $2.50 $2.00 $1.50 $1.00 $0.50 $0.00 U.S. Average Retail Fuel Prices Apr-00 Aug-00 Dec-00 Apr-01 Aug-01 Dec-01 Apr-02 Aug-02 Dec-02 Apr-03 Aug-03 Dec-03 Apr-04 Aug-04 Dec-04 Apr-05 Aug-05 Dec-05 Apr-06 Aug-06 Dec-06 Apr-07 Aug-07 Dec-07 Apr-08 Gasoline E85 CNG Propane Diesel B20 B2/B5 B99/B100 Source: AFDC

10 Idle Reduction Opportunity Trucks typically idle overnight, wasting 840 million gallons of diesel and emitting 10 million tons of CO 2 per year. Technology Truck Stop Electrification Auxiliary Power Units Direct-fired heaters Other

11 VMT Reduction Local Support for: Ride-sharing Mass transit use Non-motorized locomotion

12 NREL Tech Deployment Programs Clean Cities Program Mandated Fleets

13 Clean Cities Program Local coordinators and stakeholders supported by national managers, analysts, and technical specialists.

14 Mandated Fleets Federal Fleet (600,000 vehicles in U.S.) 75% of new light duty vehicles in urban areas must be able to use alternative fuels, and these vehicles must use alternative fuel if feasible. 20% reduction in annual petroleum consumption % increase in alternative fuel consumption State and Alternative Fuel Provider (AFP) Fleets 75% of new vehicles (90% for AFPs) must be able to use alternative fuels. Can earn waivers by reducing petroleum use
