DEARBORN, MICH. -- Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham today made two major announcements about the future of personal transportation in the United States, unveiling the "National Hydrogen Energy Roadmap" and the "New Vision for the 21st Century Truck Partnership" that focuses on improving the energy efficiency and safety of trucks and buses. Secretary Abraham gave the keynote address to an international audience of senior government, industry and academic officials at the Global Forum on Personal Transportation in Dearborn, Mich. The result of a twelve-month collaborative process that brought together America's scientific and engineering experts to chart the course to a hydrogen economy, the roadmap outlines the research, development, demonstration, codes and standards, and education efforts necessary to lead the nation to a clean and sustainable energy future. President Bush's National Energy Policy provided the foundation for developing the Hydrogen Roadmap. "Whether it is fusion, a hydrogen economy, or ideas that we have not yet explored, I believe we need to leapfrog the status quo and prepare for a future that under any scenario requires a revolution in how we produce, deliver and use energy," Secretary Abraham said. In the coming decades the United States will need new energy supplies and an upgraded energy infrastructure to meet growing demands for electric power and transportation fuels. Heavy reliance on oil imports threatens our economic well-being and national security. Clean energy alternatives are needed to reduce air pollution, curb greenhouse gas emissions and offer sustainable solutions for increasing global economic growth..... energy.gov Website eren.doe.gov Del
