The National Science Foundation Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems awarded Northwestern University a $457,459 Project Grant under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The grant will support the development of a fine-scale climate and air quality analysis framework to assess neighborhood-scale air quality co-benefits and tradeoffs of transportation electrification strategies. Specifically, the University will create emission scenarios accounting for grid demand increases; simulate meteorological and chemical interactions; characterize changes in greenhouse gases and air pollutants; and assess economic, social, and public health implications at equity-relevant neighborhood scales. It will also integrate research into middle school curriculum and provide mentorship opportunities for underrepresented students. The framework aims to advance understanding of local air pollution impacts from electric vehicles to inform policymakers and environmental justice advocates.
