| 摘要： | January always means it's time for the annual Transportation Research Board (TRB) meeting in Washington, D.C. This was the 102nd annual meeting, and by all accounts it was once again a success. Perhaps the biggest highlight this year was when the Department of Transportation (DOT) and Department of Energy (DOE) secretaries addressed the carbon emissions plan. This discussion was presented as a "fireside chat" and included energy secretary Jennifer M. Granholm, transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg, TRB executive committee chair Nathaniel P. Ford Sr. and vice chair Shawn Wilson. The discussion centered on a recently released national public-private sector blueprint for transportation decarbonization developed by DOE, DOT and other federal agencies, and the federal governments plan to reach net-zero carbon emissions in the U.S. transportation sector by 2050. This plan includes equitably improving mobility and building out a nationwide network of electric vehicle (EV) chargers, zero-emission fueling infrastructure, and zero-emission transit and school buses as well as other initiatives. |
