The National Academies’ America’s Energy Future project aims to stimulate and inform a constructive national dialogue about the nation\u2019s energy future. With a sustained national commitment, the United States could achieve considerable energy-efficiency improvements, acquire new sources of energy supply, and effect substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions through the accelerated development and deployment of a portfolio of existing and emerging energy-supply and end-use technologies.<\/p>\n
The future of America\u2019s energy is closely connected to the development and direction of the transportation sector.\u00a0\u00a0This webinar will explore America\u2019s Energy Future project through the eyes of transportation professionals. Presenters will discuss the impact that petroleum has on the economy and national security, the ability to incorporate liquid fuels produced from coal and biomass into U.S. energy strategy, and the development of efficiency technologies and new vehicles that could reduce projected U.S. energy use.\u00a0\u00a0People interested in the intersection between energy and transportation should attend this webinar.<\/p>\n
