Off-Road Vehicle Decarbonization and Energy Systems Integration: R&D Gaps and Opportunities

This report summarizes findings from the Off-Road Decarbonization and Energy Systems Integration workshop, hosted by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) from March 22–24, 2022. The workshop focused on the importance of collaboration among the off-road vehicle industry and government to address barriers and opportunities for decarbonization. The workshop focused on the role the off-road sector can play in helping achieve the U.S. goals of carbon-pollution-free electricity by 2035 and a net-zero-emissions economy by no later than 2050. The sections within this report correspond to the three topic areas covered in the 3-day workshop: a high-level perspective of needs and challenges, vehicle and equipment decarbonization strategies, and energy systems integration opportunities.
