WSU EcoCAR 2 Team speaks to Alternative Energy Companies, Supporters

On March 30 the EcoCAR 2 team was invited to participate in the Alternative Energy Fuel Summit at Henry Ford Community College. We got the chance to meet several alternative energy champions, and learn about the important work Michigan companies are doing to decrease oil dependence.

After hearing from Mich. politicians about the economical the role of alternative energy, the summit broke into smaller sessions. Alongside Detroit’s Clean Energy Coalition the EcoCAR 2 team told attendees about the importance of hybridization and our chosen vehicle architecture.

The summit was a great opportunity to meet ecological allies and promote the importance of our EcoCAR 2 team. Special thanks to Detroit’s Clean Energy Coalition for their help, and Henry Ford Community College. The Wayne State EcoCAR 2 team would love to be invited to next year’s event.
