As you already know (from your previous email), ballistic transport 
calculations can be performed with the PWcond code in the QE package. PWcond 
does not use NEGF technique, if you want to use that you will need to move to 
another code (for instance, the Want code should be directly interfaced with 
PWscf).

I don't believe this has been considered/implemented so far.

Before dealing with a complicated physics problem it sounds reasonable to first 
acquire a solid background and start with simpler problems, don't you think so?
