Speaker Bio: Yang Zhao received his Ph.D. from Beijing Institute of Technology and was a visiting Ph.D. student at University of California at Berkeley. He has worked on the assessment of electric vehicle operating behavior and energy use patterns. He is currently studying how electrified fleets will impact future road transportation and how we can use new energy vehicles to decarbonize energy systems. He is also investigating the development and plans of charging infrastructure in the US and China, as now is the critical time to develop infrastructure for carbon-neutral targets.
