Natural Gas Vehicle Research

Workshop
The U.S. Department of Energy's Vehicle Technologies O ce sought input from natural gas vehicle stakeholders to
understand and prioritize research needs to increase the e ciency and reduce emissions of medium- and heavy-
duty natural gas vehicles.

The U.S. Department of Energy and teams at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Argonne
National Laboratory, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory invited natural gas vehicle stakeholders to
share their challenges and ideas in a collaborative meeting.

The Natural Gas Vehicle Research Workshop was held at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (/)
(NREL) in Golden, Colorado.
