The Complex Calculus of Clean Energy and Zero Emissions

Cars That Think

Among the most articulate and almost certainly the wonkiest is Jesse Jenkins , a professor of engineering at Princeton University, where he heads the ZERO Lab—the Zero-carbon Energy systems Research and Optimization Laboratory, that is. Much of the data was made available, but some was redacted for various competitive concerns.
