Watch or Attend: Insights into the Future of Clean Transportation
Tuesday, October 6, 12:00 p.m.
A live webcast will begin at 12:15 p.m. ET
Electric cars, natural gas trucks, plug-in hybrids, fuel cell vehicles... As the global auto industry retools and re-emerges following the financial crisis, new technologies, players and business models are promising to reinvent not only how we drive but one of the key engines of global growth. Clean vehicles have the potential to provide energy security, help solve climate change and create new jobs and wealth. But just how the industry re-emerges, where it thrives and what technologies and companies will come out on top remain vital questions, the answers to which will impact not only America’s future but the world’s.
To understand the future of clean transportation, NDN will convene a panel of experts for discussion on clean vehicles and the future of the auto industry. Joining us will be Kathryn Clay, Director of Research for the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, Kim Hill of the Center for Automotive Research, who has recently completed a study on jobs and environmental benefits resulting from fleet conversion, using AT&T as a case study, and Mike Granoff, Head of Oil Independence Policies for Better Place, the transformative, Palo Alto-based electric car infrastructure company. Moderating the forum will be NDN Green Project Director, Michael Moynihan.
Our panel of experts will discuss new technologies on the horizon, how clean vehicles will create jobs and transform the economy, the connection between electric cars, renewable energy and the electricity network and how clean vehicles can provide energy security and address climate change.
The Auto Alliance is an organization of the leading global makers of cars and other vehicles. The Center for Automotive Research is the leading organization providing research on the global car industry and impact of cars on the economy. Better Place which is integrating electric transportation solutions in Israel, Australia, Denmark, the United States, Canada and Japan is the first service provider for electric cars, building infrastructure, software and the user interfaces to make electric cars available for mass adoption.
The NDN Green Project is working to facilitate the transition to a clean, low-carbon economy to advance the goals of solving climate change, improving energy security, and promoting economic growth.
