R&D GREET can help the energy industry understand how their choices from technology design, to product selection, to consumer use, can impact the environment and energy consumption. It also helps fuel producers assess their sustainability performance and key areas to focus their R&D investments.

R&D GREET pinpoints vehicle and energy system combinations for environmental performance and identifies the hotspots for further improvements.

R&D GREET serves as a research and educational tool to study different energy systems for future clean energy technology development.

R&D GREET can help the average consumer compare their vehicle and fuel options, selecting the type of vehicle that meets their driving needs with the lowest energy and environmental impacts.
