Energy, Transportation, and Infrastructure

Energy, transportation, and infrastructure are essential systems underpinning the nationÆs prosperity, security, and well-being. The ETI Program examines the role of technology in producing and using energy resources; designing, operating, and improving transportation systems; and constructing and maintaining infrastructure. Applications of materials to these issues, including the development of natural and manufactured material resources through extraction, processing, use, and recycling or waste management are also included in ETIÆs work. The Program covers the export and import of energy, transportation, and infrastructure technologies, goods, and services, including energy fuels and efficiency. The ProgramÆs work helps Congress develop policies for these systems that will sustain economic growth, global competitiveness, and international stability while minimizing adverse social, economic, and environmental impacts.
