Join us for the next installment in the Argonne OutLoud Lecture Series where you will learn about the dual benefits of adopting eco-friendly transportation methods. Through a series of two ​“TED-talk style” lectures, attendees will hear about the sustainable evolution of transportation.

Using engaging visuals and dynamic presentations, researchers will discuss how EV travel can contribute to a cleaner environment and bring about significant economic advantages. Attendees will also learn about the challenges of EV accessibility and investments into future infrastructure improvements.

With summer vacation-planning in full swing, you will leave with a greater understanding about how to make informed choices that could foster a more sustainable and responsible approach to your upcoming getaways.

*Prior to the speaker series, join us for an interactive exhibit highlighting Argonne’s battery recycling efforts. Researchers will exhibit materials that come out of recycled EV batteries and will explain how Argonne is making the process cleaner and more profitable. In addition, see the EcoCAR research vehicle. Managed by Argonne for 30 years, the EcoCAR workforce development program has created life-changing experiences and unparalleled career opportunities for more than 30,000 alumni.
