Review of the Research Program of the U.S. DRIVE Partnership: Fifth
Report follows on four previous reviews of the FreedomCAR and Fuel
Partnership, which was the predecessor of the U.S. DRIVE
Partnership. The U.S. DRIVE (Driving Research and Innovation for
Vehicle Efficiency and Energy Sustainability) vision, according to
the charter of the Partnership, is this: American consumers have a
broad range of affordable personal transportation choices that
reduce petroleum consumption and significantly reduce harmful
emissions from the transportation sector. Its mission is as
follows: accelerate the development of pre-competitive and
innovative technologies to enable a full range of efficient and
clean advanced light-duty vehicles (LDVs), as well as related
energy infrastructure. The Partnership focuses on precompetitive
research and development (R&D) that can help to accelerate the
emergence of advanced technologies to be
commercialization-feasible. The guidance for the work of the U.S.
DRIVE Partnership as well as the priority setting and targets for
needed research are provided by joint industry/government technical
teams. This structure has been demonstrated to be an effective
means of identifying high-priority, long-term precompetitive
research needs for each technology with which the Partnership is
involved. Technical areas in which research and development as well
as technology validation programs have been pursued include the
following: internal combustion engines (ICEs) potentially operating
on conventional and various alternative fuels, automotive fuel cell
power systems, hydrogen storage systems (especially onboard
vehicles), batteries and other forms of electrochemical energy
storage, electric propulsion systems, hydrogen production and
delivery, and materials leading to vehicle weight reductions. Table
