Npwz related ? Program received VTO XFC Award for their world-class leadership in furthering the mission at EERE with the successful development of the ground-breaking electric vehicle Extreme Fast Charging R&D Gap Assessment Research Roadmap. This roadmap provides a comprehensive assessment of the key technical barriers that need to be assessed and overcome through research in order to facilitate cost-effective, rapid-rate electric vehicle charging. The roadmap was the basis for a recent VTO Funding Opportunity Announcement for advancing Extreme Fast Charging technologies.

The Impact Awards are presented once per year and celebrate exceptional EERE team and individual contributions and accomplishments. The awards were handed out personally by Acting Assistant Secretary Daniel Simmons and Deputy Assistant Secretary for Sustainable Transportation Steven Chalk last month.

Pesaran was most recently elected to the distinction of Fellow from SAE International, a U.S.-based association for engineers and other technical experts specializing in automotive, commercial-vehicle, and aerospace industries throughout the world. SAE recognized Pesaran's passion and lifelong contribution to improving lithium-ion battery performance for electric vehicles.

Brian Cunningham, Engineer, Vehicle Technologies Office, Energy Storage R&D, U.S. Department of Energy

The U.S. Department of Energy set key technical targets necessary to enable Electric Vehicles (EV) to be as affordable as gasoline vehicles by 2022. A focus of this effort is the development of more cost-effective, longer lasting, and more abuse-tolerant EV batteries. VTO’s battery R&D effort includes multiple activities, ranging from battery materials research to battery cell and pack development and testing. This paper will highlight the current battery R&D pathways supported by VTO and key technical results from 2016.
