Call for White Papers
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is issuing a call for white papers to inform a new study that will assess existing and novel electric power and energy (P&E) technologies to support Army multi-domain operations (MDO) in 2035. The final study report will help identify future Army research and investment opportunities, and input from researchers and practitioners in the field is crucial for this endeavor.
 
The study committee invites you to submit a response to the white paper solicitation. Selected white paper authors will be invited to join a public forum on May 18-21, 2020 to discuss their ideas with the study committee. White papers will be selected on their level of detail and analysis and the extent to which they meet the required parameters.
