Electric, Hybrid, and Fuel Cell Vehicles

Dr. Amgad Elgowainy is currently a senior scientist and the leader of the Electrification and Infrastructure Group at Argonne National Laboratory, providing technical guidance to a team of 20 researchers on projects covering engineering process modeling, environmental life cycle analysis, and technoeconomic analysis of alternative energy systems and fuel/vehicle technologies. Dr. Elgowainy has been serving as a technical expert on several government and auto/energy industry partnerships and has led the collaborative cradle-tograve (C2G) economic and environmental analysis of light-duty vehicles. He served as the US expert in several of the International Energy Agency Annexes on electric vehicles and large-scale hydrogen infrastructure. He is currently representing the USA in the International Partnership of Hydrogen Economy to develop greenhouse gas emissions accounting methodology for international hydrogen production certificate of origin, and is also supporting the AmmoniaEnergy Association with developing a low-carbon certification scheme for the ammonia industry. Dr. Elgowainy is co-leading the development of the environmental life cycle analysis suite of models (GREET® ) and has led the development of the hydrogen infrastructure technoeconomic suite of models (HDSAM). His models are recognized globally and used by thousands of researchers worldwide. Dr. Elgowainy earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of New York at Buffalo in 1994 and has taught many undergraduate and graduate engineering and environmental courses at University of Chicago, Purdue Northwest, Tennessee State University, and University at Buffalo. In 2020 he was recognized by DOE Secretary Achievement Award related to his role in the Integrated Energy Systems Team xiii for efforts to establish nuclear hydrogen demonstration projects. Dr. Elgowainy authored several book chapters on electrification of transportation and low carbon fuels and authored and coauthored over 130 peerreviewed publications.
