Welcome to ACT Expo 2016
Thank you for joining us in sunny Southern California for the largest clean low carbon fuel and advanced vehicle
technology show. ACT Expo is excited to present this year’s program in partnership with five of the industry’s leading
clean transportation associations, including the Electric Drive Transportation Association (EDTA), NGVAmerica, the
California Hydrogen Business Council (CHBC), the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC), and the North
American Council for Freight Efficiency (NACFE). We are also proud to have the support of our presenting sponsor—
Penske Truck Leasing.
This is an incredibly exciting time for the sustainable transportation industry, with worldwide momentum building
to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels and lessen our impact on our planet. Last fall, the Paris climate agreement
(COP21) marked the first time we’ve had international recognition of the risks of climate change, gathering over
190 nations to hold the increase in the global average temperature to below 2°C above pre-industrial levels by
reducing GHG and carbon dioxide emissions. Both the public and private sector have made impressive and meaningful
commitments to reducing their emissions and increasing investments in low-carbon solutions.
To underscore this momentum, over the next few days, dozens of leading fleet operators will share insight into the
business case behind their commitment to deploying low carbon and renewable fuels and advanced technology
vehicles and expanding infrastructure—despite the temporary dip in oil prices. This is a fantastic opportunity to hear
how organizations from all corners of the transportation industry are using alternative fuels to mitigate the impact of
volatile petroleum prices, proactively reduce emissions and improve environmental and cost performance, and drive
business growth.
Beyond the dynamic agenda sessions, we’re excited to have a packed exhibit hall featuring the latest technologies
and innovations across all fuels and advanced clean vehicle technologies, all under one roof. Be sure to set aside
plenty of time to explore the expo hall where you can discover the wide range of clean vehicle technologies—
electric, propane autogas, natural gas, biofuels, fuel cell, hybrid, and clean diesel—and make hordes of new industry
connections during hosted networking events.
Thank you for making the investment to be a part of this year’s ACT Expo. We want to continue to ensure the show
provides unparalleled learning and networking opportunities, so we welcome your suggestions and feedback!

NACFE Trucking
Efficiency Workshop
Presented by
NACFE
Class 8 over-the-road tractor trailers deliver all the goods we want when we need them. In so doing
however, they consume a significant amount of petroleum fuel. A single unit will burn approximately
16,000 gallons of diesel each year. With approximately 1.8 million Class 8 trucks operating in North
America, 28 billion gallons of diesel are consumed each year in this industry. Working to reduce the volume
of fuel consumed by this sector is a top priority of truckers that pay these fuel bills, as well as policy makers
who are looking to reduce our nation’s dependence on imported energy sources. At the same time, public
and private stakeholders are working to reduce the emissions output of the trucking industry via a number
of progressive strategies, including efficiency improvement measures so that less fuel is burned. Join
this workshop where the North American Council for Freight Efficiency and the Carbon War Room will
provide an update on their important work in these areas, provide key lessons learned in this field thus far,
and an overview of the variety of technologies and efficiency related regulations focused on the trucking
industry. Following this panel discussion, focused group discussions will be coordinated on these topics.

Medium- & Heavy-Duty
Electric Commercial
Vehicles
In partnership with
Electric applications in the medium- and heavy-duty sectors are beginning to see increased demand as well
as an increased number of offerings from vehicle manufacturers. Over the past few years, transit agencies
have adopted electric buses in higher volumes—some going so far as to commit to 100 percent electric—
proving that the technology is no longer in demonstration, but is a viable alternative to traditionally fueled
buses. While the other segments of medium- and heavy-duty transportation have been slower to develop
and adopt electric vehicles, a number of options have emerged for work truck, over-the-road and other
specialty applications. Some of the nation’s top fleets have begun deploying these vehicles—both pure
battery electric and hybrid—in real-world, customer-demanding applications. This session aims to connect
the sellers with the buyers to advance the use of electric vehicle technologies in some of these heavierduty sectors.

BREAKOUT SESSION 1.1
Driving the Future of
Transit & Mobility
Characterized by frequent stops, repetitive routes, and high fuel consumption, transit and mobility fleets
are often optimal candidates for deployment of alternative fuel strategies. Traditional advanced clean
fuels such as natural gas, propane, and electric drive technologies have been extremely successful in
these applications. More recently, we have seen full battery electric vehicles play a role as well. As
hydrogen fuel cell vehicles take the street in larger numbers, and mobility services and ride sharing
applications like Uber, Lyft, and others increasingly dominate the space, there is tremendous opportunity
for significant additional market penetration of advanced clean transportation technologies. Hear from
leading mobility and transit fleet managers as well as equipment and service providers to get an inside

Refuse Revolution
The ruthless stop-and-go operation of a collection truck, combined with its return-to-base route, has
made heavy-duty refuse an ideal application for the increased penetration of alternative fuels and
advanced transportation technologies. Today, ultra-low NOx engines using ultra-low carbon renewable
natural gas—combined with aggressive municipal environmental initiatives and the trends towards
franchising—are poised to again revolutionize this sector. This, in tandem with the emergence
of electric drive and other advanced technologies, is ushering in a new wave of zero and near-zero
emission waste operations and thus provides a tremendous win for the environment and sustainability.
This revolution will give rise to the cleanest heavy-duty truck operations on the road today, paving the
way for other sectors to follow suit.

Autonomous &
Connected Vehicles:
The Next Generation
of Commercial HeavyDuty Vehicles
There is no hotter transportation technology topic right now than autonomous and connected
heavy-duty trucks. For years, the trucking industry has been deploying different methods to
ensure efficiency in routes and driver safety, from built-in telematics and GPS to driver assist and
adaptive cruise control. Now, we’re seeing large-scale demonstrations and technologies to support
different applications in these vehicles, including platooning, catenary systems, and autonomous
driving platforms. The opportunities for efficiency gains, lower costs, and improved operational
and environmental performance are tremendous. Fleet operators are apprehensive as they must
consider a litany of issues such as technological readiness, regulatory approval, liability questions,
driver considerations, and integration into not only their own operations but also “connecting” to
the operations of others. Hear from leading developers, technology providers, and end-users on
this exciting panel as we explore these complex topics and gain a better understanding of the
costs, benefits, key considerations, and true commercialization and deployment timelines for these
promising technologies and concepts.

Innovative Delivery
Concepts
The “traditional” delivery of goods is being turned on its head as the distribution strategy has switched
from one where an item is transported from a shipper’s warehouse to the point of sale to the consumer,
to a model that skips, consolidates, or completely changes the steps along the way. However, the use of
these new and innovative technologies and approaches does not necessarily reduce overall emissions,
particularly if the number of overall delivery trips stays constant or even increases. A huge opportunity
exists to incorporate cleaner technologies into these delivery approaches, including alternative fuels,
advanced telematics, and trip optimization. With discussion and movement toward models for shared
and maximized cargo space, direct to-consumer delivery, and delivery by drone—to name a few—this
panel will explore how far along the trucking industry has come in adapting to these changes and the
remaining barriers and challenges companies face to ultimately deliver goods utilizing these solutions.

Alternative fuel vehicles and advanced vehicle technologies deployed in neighborhoods act as some of the
most visible examples of corporate commitment to improving local air quality. However, the vehicles also
benefit these organizations by reducing fuel and maintenance costs, complying with local regulations, and
increasing the efficiency of a fleet’s operations. Light-, medium-, and heavy-duty work trucks and delivery
vehicles share similar operational profiles in these applications, including frequent stop-and-go routes,
extended periods of idling, and return-to-base operations. These characteristics make alternative fuels
and advanced technologies ideal for fleets operating under neighborhood conditions. However, one fuel
type does not fit all applications, and each of the companies represented in this session has evaluated a
variety of fuels and technologies to select the one that best meets their needs. Some even deploy different
fuel types in different locations. This panel will showcase a range of AFVs, telematics, and other efficiency
measures that have proven successful in reducing costs and emissions while meeting tough operational
demands. Case studies will be presented by a variety of operators that have selected the clean fuel or
technology that most benefits the specific vocation and environment of their fleet.

Though converting a fleet to operate cleaner, more fuel efficient equipment may seem like the difficult
Maximizing Clean Fuel part, it is equally important for fleet managers to ensure that clean fuel miles are maximized once
advanced technologies and vehicles are deployed. Continuous monitoring of performance, operational
Miles
profiles, routing, and driver behavior are necessary to ensure that these investments are worthwhile and
that technologies are utilized to their full potential. Project return on investment will only be assured
if operators maximize the amount of clean miles driven. This session will highlight strategies that are
being employed to by end-users across sectors and operational profiles to optimize fleet performance.

Mobility: Tackling
Challenges and
Opportunities
Passenger and vocational vehicles have seen significant advancement in autonomous and connected
mobility, and, in fact, have benefited from advances in the technology for years. Cruise control and Eco
mode, built in GPS that identifies nearby charging stations, tire pressure monitoring and alerts, optimized
routing applications, and text message alerts when your vehicle has been charged or unplugged are
all technologies that help transform the vehicle into an extension of our phone, tablet, or laptop. These
features, which are revolutionizing our experience in passenger and vocational vehicles, have seen
tremendous momentum, especially in recent years, and are paving the way for a cleaner, more fuel efficient
trip. Advanced transportation professionals in different settings have been forced to grapple with, separate,
and make decisions on the “here and now” of these technologies (and the costs associated with them), the
short-term future (and if we’re ready for it), and the long-term plans. This panel discussion brings together
the developers and leading adopters of this technology to assess its current state and determine the nearterm and long-term horizons for autonomous and connected transportation in our local communities.

Success Stories
The nation’s largest fleets are revolutionizing the way goods are transported, as they continue to strive
towards operations that both reduce environmental impact and improve the bottom line. Because there
is no single clean technology that will act as a silver bullet for all operations, analysis of one particular
fleet may result in a different clean fuel strategy when compared to another. These long-mileage
trucks must diligently plan their operations based on the paid miles, routes and logistics, refueling
accessibility, grant funding opportunities, and maintenance considerations, among many other factors.
During this session, fleet managers will discuss the decision-making process that determined which
technologies and efficiency measures offer the greatest advantage for their unique operations and the
key steps that have allowed them to achieve success.

Low Carbon Fuels:
Getting to Truly Zero
Emissions
Renewables offer the opportunity to remove the fossil from the fuel, supply the transportation
sector with a clean and domestic energy source, and turn traditional waste streams into valuable
commodities. These fuels are no longer a lofty future goal, but are becoming increasingly costcompetitive and therefore prevalent in the marketplace today. With technology and fuel solution
providers rapidly developing systems to take advantage of abundant renewable energy sources, there
is an increasing number of opportunities to easily drop these fuels into existing operations. Renewable
diesel, biomethane, and renewable hydrogen are all contributing to the reality of truly zero emission
vehicles. Listen in as fleet managers, fuel suppliers, equipment providers, and industry experts discuss
the technological advances, implementation challenges, and the economic environment that will be

• Genevieve Cullen, President, Electric Drive Transportation Association
9:15 a.m. – Choosing Electric: Purchasing the Right Vehicle for Your Fleet
Electric vehicle ownership—both in consumer and fleet applications—is on the rise globally. This is
especially true in the US and Canada, where EV adoption has increased exponentially over the past
few years. Leading automotive manufacturers are developing more electric drive options with fuel
cell, battery electric, and hybrid powertrains than ever before, and some anticipate that EVs will
comprise at least 25 percent of new car sales by 2025. During this session, leading OEMs and fleet
first-adopters will join us for a conversation about the strategies and key considerations necessary
to develop a successful EV deployment and implementation plan. OEMs will explore their ability to
differentiate themselves from the competition with superior incentives, maintenance and warranty
coverage, and fleet management tools to support EVs. Fleets will address key considerations that
guided their purchasing decisions, including making the choice between battery-electric, hybridelectric, and plug-in hybrid vehicles, determining which technologies best meet their operational
needs, and ultimately, what steps are necessary to increase the number of EVs being deployed.

9:10 a.m. – Executive Roundtable: Achieving Corporate Sustainability Goals:
Zeroing in on Transportation
The Sustainability Roundtable will feature leading high-profile companies that are pushing the
envelope on sustainability in transportation. So often we hear the term sustainability focused
narrowly on emissions from buildings, entirely ignoring those that result from transportation of
goods and materials. This aspect of the supply chain can be the single largest source of corporate
emissions, accounting for up to half of a company’s overall environmental footprint. Transportation
must be a key factor evaluated by companies looking to significantly mitigate their global impact on
air quality and greenhouse gas emissions. The companies featured in this discussion are some of
those that see the connection between transportation and environmental responsibility and have
gone above and beyond basic compliance to prove that fleet sustainability can make both sense and
cents for their long-term company needs and corporate sustainability goals.

sustainability goals. The Sustainable Freight Transportation Initiative—to be released just before
ACT Expo—is an integrated action plan to improve freight efficiency, transition to zero-emission and
advanced technologies, and to increase the competitiveness of the freight system. The Initiative has the
potential to alter the way the world thinks about and plans for the future of freight. The panel will focus
on the development and implementation of investments, policies, and programs that will be needed to
reach a cleaner, more efficient, and more competitive transportation freight network, and the types of
technologies that will get us there. This discussion will assess the implications the Initiative will have
for other states and countries considering advancements in their freight system as well as the steps
