This document discusses the benefits of electrifying transportation systems to create a more sustainable future. Some key points include:
- Electrification can reduce transportation's impacts like air pollution and petroleum use by 50-90% and lower total costs by 50%.
- The Center for Sustainable Electrified Transportation (SELECT) is working on demonstrations and research to advance vehicle and infrastructure integration like extending battery range by 50% and developing electrified roadways.
- Field trials of electrified roadways are happening in the UK and South Korea to eliminate range anxiety by enabling wireless in-motion charging of electric vehicles.

Editor's Notes
Power Electronics Lab
I’d break this up into two slides. Most people won’t know what HV-12V DC-DC, and DC-DC + BMS means. See next two slides.
I don’t think you need the bullet points if you animate the boxes to appear when you say the two things that you’re removing. Do you have a version of this photo that is a higher resolution?
Again I’d break this up into multiple slides. First introduce who your active industry partners are, and then go into then tell what technologies of yours they are interested in/adopting. Check out the next couple of slides.
Wen have active industry partners, particularly Ford
Full-scale integration on commercial Ford Fusion PHEV battery pack; Undergoing 3rd party 12-month aging tests and validation at NREL. I don’t think you need this text on the slide. I think it’s enough for you to just say it.
I think you’ll need some sort of explanation about why this improves charging times
Again, I’d break this up into multiple slides. I’d highlight what you are removing like you did with the battery components in slide 13. I find the commercialization figure unclear. That might just be because I don’t have you to explain it. I’d definitely put it on it’s own slide and perhaps with the success highlighted on slide 24.
If you have higher resolution images, I would put each of these as a full size image and as their own slide.
This introduces the base cost of the roadway first, and indicates that only half of the total 2.4 million comes from the electrification
I’d break this into two slides. To my understanding, the graph captures the payback for the infrastructure, whereas the table captures comparisons the vehicle.
Remind me what you’re main point is for slides 26 and 27?
