Abstract
The Department of Energy–sponsored project Next-Generation Energy Technologies for Connected and Automated On-Road Vehicles (NEXTCAR) aims to develop technologies that utilize emerging connectivity infrastructure. A Purdue University–led team of industry leaders, along with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, is focusing on technologies that benefit line-haul Class 8 trucks, with an emphasis on platooning vehicles. The goal is an integrated, connectivity-enabled vehicle and powertrain control system for diesel-powered on-highway trucks. Join us for a discussion.
