12/7/2009--Introduced.Advanced Vehicle Technology Act of 2009 - Directs the Secretary of Energy to:(1) conduct a program of basic and applied research, development, engineering, demonstration, and commercial application activities on materials, technologies, and processes with the potential to substantially reduce or eliminate petroleum use by, and emissions from, passenger and commercial vehicles;
(2) ensure that the Department of Energy (DOE) continues to support domestic research, development, engineering, demonstration, and commercial application activities and maintains competency in mid- to long-term transformational vehicle technologies with potential to achieve deep reductions in petroleum use and emissions;
(3) implement activities under this Act in collaboration with automotive manufacturers, heavy commercial and transit vehicle manufacturers, qualified plug-in electric vehicle manufacturers, vehicle and engine equipment and component manufacturers, manufacturing equipment manufacturers, advanced vehicle service providers, fuel producers and energy suppliers, electric utilities, institutions of higher education, national laboratories, and independent research laboratories;
(4) conduct research, development, engineering, and demonstration activities on connectivity of domestic vehicle and transportation systems; and
(5) implement a research, development, engineering, demonstration, and commercial application program of domestic advanced vehicle manufacturing technologies and practices. Directs the Secretary to:
(1) establish an Innovative Automotive Demonstration Program, within the Vehicle Technologies Program, to encourage the introduction of new domestic-made advanced technology vehicles into the marketplace that are designed in their entirety to achieve very high energy efficiency but still provide the capabilities required by consumers;
(2) implement a program of cooperative research, development, demonstration, and commercial application activities on advanced technologies for medium- to heavy-duty commercial, recreational, and transit vehicles;
(3) conduct a competitive grant program to demonstrate the integration of multiple advanced technologies on Class 8 truck and trailer platforms with a goal of improving overall freight efficiency by 50%; and
(4) develop standard testing procedures and technologies for evaluating the performance of advanced heavy vehicle technologies under a range of representative duty cycles and operating conditions and evaluate heavy vehicle performance using work performance-based metrics other than metrics based on miles per gallon. Requires the Secretary to implement a pilot program of research, development, demonstration, and commercial applications of technologies to improve total machine or system efficiency for nonroad mobile equipment. Authorizes appropriations.
