The Data Research thrust serves as a central convergent resource where diverse data sets and optimization problems can be effectively integrated and analyzed for scientific discovery. The thrust connects data science research with other application domains such as electric vehicles, charging systems, renewable energy, transportation, environment, and user behavior analysis and adoption.

The Power Research thrust team has the lead role in addressing the fundamental advancements required for extreme fast charging and wireless power transfer enabling technologies and co-lead roles for grid and vehicle operational and planning technologies. The team also has critical support roles in pavement integrated systems, long life, and society-technology integration.

Electrifying the transportation sector is an essential part of addressing air quality and climate challenges globally and will provide significant job growth domestically. However, building the needed infrastructure to make these shifts is a complex process that will not be achieved by engineers alone, but rather in partnership with policy makers, teachers, lawyers and collaborators in related fields. To build the necessary workforce, ASPIRE will create a connected system that encompasses K-12 experiences, higher education degrees, trades and professional workforce learning pathways – all with seamless transitions among them.
