About the Event
The Airport Consortium on Transformation (ACT) continues to promote industry engagement events as a platform for members to collaborate in person on innovative technologies and concepts that drive the aviation industry forward.
For more than 47 years, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has devised solutions for how we generate, consume, store, and distribute energy. Join us to learn how NREL and aviation stakeholders are using the laboratory’s world-class facilities and other unique research environments to advance energy in aviation—from fuels to airport infrastructure optimization and aircraft propulsion technologies. There will be opportunities for tours of NREL’s facilities and workshops with researchers.
