Attendees not only had a chance to network with experts from throughout the nation and the region, but they learned of first-hand experiences from fleets currently using alternative fuels and electric vehicles. Attendees also had the chance to test drive vehicles of all different sizes.\nGreen Drives Conference Recordings:\nOpening Remarks and Hydrogen Hubs: Current Efforts to Advance Low-Carbon H2 Use in the U.S.\nhttps://vimeo.com/830033707?share=copy\nLow Carbon, Clean, and Efficient Vehicle Technologies\nhttps://vimeo.com/830001707?share=copy\nEV Charging Station Project Planning\nhttps://vimeo.com/830007645?share=copy\nLunch Remarks\nhttps://vimeo.com/830015923?share=copy\nHow to Approach Life Cycle Costs of EVs Compared to Other Fuels\nhttps://vimeo.com/830023066?share=copy\nHow to Measure Vehicle Emissions\nhttps://vimeo.com/830028121?share=copy\nAvailable Federal and State Funding Programs and How to Access Them\nhttps://vimeo.com/830041594?share=copy\nGreen Drives Conference Presentations: \nOpening Remarks by Chris Lyon, Director of Fleet Relations, NTEA ( https://www.il-act.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/PP1-Chris-Lyon-Green-Drives-2023.pdf )\nHydrogen Hubs: Current Efforts to Advance Low-Carbon H2 Use in the U.S.\nBart Sowa, Senior Project Manager, Transportation, GTI Energy ( https://www.il-act.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/PP2-2023-Green-Drives-GTI-Energy-Hydrogen-Hubs.pdf )\nLow Carbon, Clean, and Efficient Vehicle Technologies\nLinda Gaines, Systems Analyst, Argonne National Laboratory ( https://www.il-act.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/PP3-LindaGainesGREEN-DRIVES-2023.pdf )\nAshlee McLaughlin, External Affairs Director, Champaign Urbana MTD ( https://www.il-act.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/PP4-MTD-Hydrogen-Presentation.pdf )\nDr. BJ Johnson, Co-Founder & CEO, ClearFlame Engine Technologies ( https://www.il-act.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/PP5-ClearFlame-Green-Drives-Naperville-2023-Tech-Summary.pdf )\nEV Charging Station Project Planning\nModerator: Les Faul, Manager of Fleet Services, ComEd\nElbert Walters III, Director, Powering Chicago ( https://www.il-act.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/PP6-EV-Book-Presentation-Powering-Chicago.pdf )\nDavid Novak, Project Manager, Christopher B.
