Semi-annual Program Progress Performance Report for University Transportation Center

The Electric Vehicle Transportation Center (EVTC) supports the U.S. Department of Transportation’s strategic goal of planning for near-term integration of alternative fuel vehicles as a means to build a sustainable transportation system. The project objectives are to evaluate technologies, standards, planning and policies to ensure seamless integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into a complex transportation network and electricity grid. The EVTC bridges the gap between deployment of electric vehicles and the traditional transportation system. For this reporting period, EVTC researchers authored 7 project final reports, published 16 publications, made 12 presentations, attended 4 workshops and conferences, held or participated in 24 STEM events and have planned for 9 more STEM events. EVTC also held its 2nd EV Transportation & Technology Summit in October 2016. The Summit had 90 attendees and 14 sponsors. The EVTC Research and Development (R&D) agenda has been conducting work on 22 projects. Seven are completed and the remaining projects are conducting the final work efforts and are writing final project reports. A summary of results for each project are presented in this report.
