Applications for the Environment Real-Time Synthesis Broad Agency Announcement Project: Evaluating Intelligent Eco-Drive Applications

Project Information

Project ID:
FHWA-PROJ-10-0047
Project Abstract:

The project will examine the potential of ecoadaptive cruise control (eco-ACC) applications to improve environmental performance. A traffic simulation tool will be modified to model eco-ACC strategies, and research will be conducted to develop an effective algorithm for this application.

Goals

An Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) application of ecoadaptive cruise control using connected vehicle technologies can significantly improve environmental performance.
