Special Committee on Emerging Technologies
The Special Committee on Emerging Technologies (SCET) is a key advisory body established by the HEI Board of Directors to aid HEI in identifying emerging fuels and technologies with a high likelihood of coming to market, so that HEI can effectively evaluate, plan, and initiate timely research and assessment of their likely health implications and potential unintended consequences. SCET is composed of experts from industry, government, academia, sponsors, and environmental organizations knowledgeable about fuels, technologies, health, and future trends.
During 2010-2011, SCET deliberated on the state of fuels and automotive technologies and published a comprehensive report (Communication 16). In response to SCET’s advice, HEI issued to a call to action on several specific topics (see Communication 16). In 2013, SCET reconvened to discuss changes that had occurred since the report was published. HEI anticipates that it will reconvene SCET again in 2017.
