Free GREET Users workshop, for greenhouse gases in transportation, announced for October

August 30, 2015 |

In Illinois, the Argonne GREET team will hold two-day GREET users workshop on October 15-16, 2015, at Argonne National Laboratory to help familiarize GREET users with new developments and updates of the GREET 2015 suite of models.

Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, the GREET (Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy use in Transportation) allows researchers and analysts to evaluate various vehicle and fuel combinations on a full fuel-cycle/vehicle-cycle basis. The first version of GREET was released in 1996. Since then, Argonne has continued to update and expand the model. The most recent GREET versions are the GREET 1 2014 version for fuel-cycle analysis and GREET 2 2014 version for vehicle-cycle analysis.

GREET was developed as a multidimensional spreadsheet model in Microsoft Excel. This public domain model is available free of charge for anyone to use. GREET includes more than 100 fuel pathways including petroleum fuels, natural gas fuels, biofuels, hydrogen and electricity produced from various energy feedstock sources

The GREET models are available for download from the GREET web site.

Participation to the Familiarization Workshop is free but seating is limited. Complete agenda information is here: Download the full agenda here. Participants should register ahead of time and use this link.
