Joan Ogden Environmental Science and Policy Recipient 2006-2007

Professor Ogden’s primary research interest in technical and economic assessment of new energy technologies has motivated her to serve in various capacities to address the compelling energy issues facing the U.S. The following are a few of the areas that demonstrate Professor Ogden’s voluntary public service contributions: serving as an advisor to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) on hydrogen, assisting in the development of a R&D roadmap for carbon sequestration, evaluating DOE’s Advanced Automotive Technologies Program, evaluating DOE’s energy research portfolio, participating in the DOE “hydrogen vision” meeting, and leading the “integration team” for DOE’s Hydrogen Roadmap process. She also serves on the Governor’s advisory panel to help implement a plan to make hydrogen a major transportation fuel.
