An Introduction to the Energy and Transportation Science Division, ORNL
Johney Green, Ph.D., Director, Energy and Transportation Science Division, ORNL
Abstract:
The Energy and Transportation Science Division at Oak Ridge National Laboratory was created
in March of 2008. Although newly organized and named, the Energy and Transportation Science
Division (ETSD) is an R&D Division for a wide variety of energy and transportation research
missions broadly described in the areas of building and industrial energy efficiency, electrical
power research, fuels, engine and vehicle research and transportation analysis. Dr. Green will
briefly review the history of the Division and further describe the new mission along with the
science and technology capabilities that support it.
Wed. 15 October 2008: 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Dr. Green joined Oak Ridge National Laboratory in 1995 conducting research on cyclic
variability in internal combustion engines. During the course of that research, he joined a team
working with the Ford Motor Company seeking ways to extend exhaust gas recirculation (EGR)
limits in diesel engines. The following year, he continued his research collaboration, working
on-site at Fords Scientific Research Laboratory on modeling and experimental research for
advanced diesel engines designed for light-duty vehicles. In 2003 Dr. Green completed a
year-long off-site assignment in Washington, D.C., at the Department of Energys Office of
Vehicle Technologies serving as technical coordinator for the 21st Century Truck Partnership,
which seeks to develop advanced technologies for increasing the efficiency of heavy-duty trucks
and buses. Prior to assuming his current position Dr. Green was the Group Leader for the Fuels,
Engines, and Emissions Research Center, which specializes in the detailed characterization of
internal combustion engines.
Dr. Green earned his Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering from the University
of Memphis and his Masters and Ph.D. degrees in mechanical engineering from the GeorgiaInstitute of Technology.
