White House and U.S. DOE sponsored "Energy Data Jam"
David Greene participated in the White House and U.S. DOE sponsored "Energy Data Jam" at Stanford University On May 21, 2012. The invitation only workshop brought together "40 of the most innovative entrepreneurs, software developers, chief executive officers (CEOs), energy experts and policy makers to discuss how we can unleash the power of data, technology, and innovation to help with our pressing energy goals."

Vehicle Technologies Program Fact of the Week
Stacy Davis, Bob Boundy, and Susan Diegel develop Facts of the Week that are posted on the DOE Vehicle Technologies Homepage. For the month of March, half of the top 10 landing pages for the DOE Vehicle Technologies Homepage were Facts that they have written. (A landing page is where one enters the website for the first time.) "The FOTW pages are our biggest traffic-getters" says Suzanne Williams who compiles the Vehicle Technology website statistics for DOE.
