Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is accelerating the pace of research and development (R&D) for e cient, safe, secure, and environmentally friendly transportation. By leveraging the National Transportation Research Center (NTRC)—the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) only dedicated user facility focused on transportation—our researchers identify new materials for next-generation systems; provide decision-making tools and intelligent technologies for secure, e cient movement of passengers and freight; and create economic opportunity for the nation by improving the energy e ciency of light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles.
