The DOE/NASA Heavy Duty Transport Technology Program has been reviewed annually at the Contractors Coordination Meeting. The program managed by the NASA Lewis Research Center has the objective of developing technology for the advanced high-temperature heavy duty diesel engine. The program is presently made up of contracts and grants issued after reviewing 90 proposals received in response to Applications Notices. The majority of the contracts and grants are still in effect. Several proposals resulted in phased contracts, some of which are now being funded for their second phase. Future plans will be to continue development of the technology, eventually focusing on actual engine components that will undergo proof-of-concept tests in an insulated engine test bed.
