- Organisation Description
Argonne is developing technologies to help make advanced vehicles a reality. The laboratory's Transportation Technology R&D Center brings together scientists and engineers from many disciplines to find cost-effective solutions to the problems of transporting people and goods from one place to another -- issues like vehicle emissions and energy supply.
Argonne has been conducting transportation research for three decades. The laboratory's main sponsor for this research is the U.S. Department of Energy, but Argonne also works with U.S. manufacturers on a wide range of transportation technologies.Specific programs concentrate on alternative-fuel vehicles, advanced batteries and fuel cells, emissions control, engine research, intelligent transportation systems, manufacturing technologies, materials, rail technologies, student vehicle competitions, supercomputing applications, technology assessments, transportation of hazardous materials, and vehicle recycling.
