• C/AV are a reality and will impact U.S. transportation sector energy use….and our fundamental infrastructure.
• Autonomous vehicles have the potential to provide opportunities for vehicle manufacturers, users, and policymakers to establish a foundation for improved per-vehicle and transportation infrastructure use while reducing energy use on a mile-of-travel basis.
• Deployment and energy impacts depends on the technologies offered, costs, influence of enabling and/or restrictive policies and legislation, and rate/nature of consumer adoption.

THE REAL OPPORTUNITY

• Engage clients and government officials (state, local, federal) to educate, to provide sound science, to advocate
• Recognize that “regulations” is not a bad word -- we need certainty to plan and finance -- good regulations can lead to great projects
• Don’t repeat the mistakes of the past – design, finance, build, operate and maintain in a sustainable way
