GermanyIn 2009 the German government announced the goal to have one million electric vehicles, including battery-electric (BEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) passenger and goods livery vehicles on German roads by 2020. To promote experience and testing of various ve ...
GermanyOver the last few years, electric mobility has been the subject of lively discussions due to the availability of new, more powerful rechargeable batteries and the high volatility on the oil markets. Other political objectives have fed in to this as well s ...
GermanyThe automotive industry and its suppliers are of key significance for value creation and employment in Europe and especially in Germany. With a turnover of around 335 billion euros, this sector generates almost 20 % of the manufacturing industry’s total v ...
GermanyVariable torque setting and quick control behaviour, possible in the case of individually driven wheels, provides electric vehicle drives with a large potential to improve vehicle safety by means of novel driving dynamic control concepts. This however mak ...
GermanyeFahrung In the joint project eFahrung business models for shared use of electric vehicles across several corporate car pools will be developed and tested. Hereby the companies allocate shares of electric vehicles for their vehicle fleets in order to impr ...
GermanyUI ElMo For the project UI ElMo companies from Bremen and its surroundings have joined forces for an evaluation of up to 160 new battery electric vehicles (BEV) as part of the companies' vehicle fleets. The installation of additional charging facilit ...
GermanyHELD A major challenge of individual mobility is the mitigation of negative environmental effects. Tightening of ecological and legislative boundary conditions leads to the development of new technologies in the field of public transport. City busses equi ...
GermanyLADEN 2020 A suitable–that is, corresponding to the demand for e-mobility and the technical characteristics of electric vehicles–demand-oriented charging infrastructure is one of the essential conditions for a successful market ramp-up of electric mobilit ...
GermanyClimate protection requires a drastic reduction in global greenhouse gas emissions. In order to achieve the German goal of almost complete elimination of emissions by 2050, a significant and early structural change in all energy consuming sectors is requi ...
GermanyDisLog Today’s commercial transport has to cope with ever smaller shipments on the one hand, and increasing requirements of speedy and time-exact delivery on the other. Yet, in the context of growing environmental awareness, an increased efficiency of dis ...
GermanyNaNu! Deliveries to and within inner-city areas are a fundamental cause of temporary local bottlenecks in traffic and dominate the local peak concentration periods of relevant pollutants. A shift of deliveries into night time would contribute to decongest ...
GermanyCCS Berlin In 2009 the German government announced the objective of having one million electric cars, including battery-electric (BEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) vehicles on German roads by 2020. This ambitious goal requires standardised and wide-spread pu ...
GermanyIPIN N/A Brandenburg is already in a position to generate more renewable energy than the land needs. Albeit, the production of renewable energy is subject to considerable fluctuations. Strong winds and low energy consumption can result in wind turbines ha ...
GermanyElektroAES N/A The use of electromobility in refuse collection promises a significant reduction in noise and pollutant emissions. The frequent braking which occurs during the refuse collection process offers great potential for the recovery of braking ene ...
GermanyKV-E-CHAIN Unlike in rail transport, where electromobility has been established for a long time, freight transport using heavy-duty trucks on the road depends on diesel power. However, it is precisely here that the use of electromobility could substantial ...
GermanyE-BUS Berlin N/A Up to the present, an all-electric bus operation is only possible over short distances, unless the batteries can be recharged along the route. The objective of the E-Bus Berlin project is to prove that electric buses with interim charging ...
GermanyN/A In order to raise public acceptance of electromobility as a realistic transportation alternative, it is necessary to demonstrate its successful use on an everyday basis in a wide range of social sectors. Therefore, in the project Electromobility for S ...
GermanyMOBIL4e The German federal government pursues the objective to bring one million electric vehicles onto German roads by 2020 and thereby to make transport more sustainable. Fostering the slow market uptake of electromobility in Germany requires a promptly ...
GermanyGuEST Taxis are an interesting, but also challenging field of application for electromobility: Due to the high mileage in the taxi business, the relatively high acquisition costs of electric vehicles can be quickly amortised through operational cost savin ...
