44 Energy Assists the National Renewable Energy Laboratory

44 Energy is proud to announce that we are working under a subcontract award from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to provide technical assistance to the Natural Gas Research & Development Consortium. NREL coordinates the Natural Gas Research & Development Consortium, a multimillion-dollar effort funded jointly by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Vehicle Technologies Office, the California Energy Commission (CEC), and the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) to advance the state of technology for natural gas vehicles. 44 Energy is assisting NREL with expertise and technical support for NREL’s management of a group of competitively awarded projects that focus on reducing the total cost of ownership of NGVs, increasing vehicle efficiency, decreasing local air pollution, and advancing technology development to increase the use of more affordable medium- and heavy-duty natural gas engines and vehicles. As part of this technical assistance, 44 Energy recently participated in the Natural Gas Vehicle Technology Forum (NGVTF).
