Workshop Electromobility in CIVITAS cities

 Workshop Electromobility in CIVITAS cities

In cooperation with the CIVITAS thematic group "Clean fuels and vehicles"16-17 February 2016, Cologne, Germany

An update on the latest solutions implemented in the CIVITAS DYN@MO and CIVITAS 2MOVE2 projects will be presented (CIVITAS Website). Participants will also learn and analyse public transport trends on the deployment of e-buses. Front runners cities will present their plans and activities, a special session of the ELIPTIC and ZeEUSprojects will also be organised (see below for more details).

The workshop will take place in Cologne Germany on 16 and 17 of February 2016 at the Hotel Hopper et cetera (Brüsseler Str. 26).

Note: ELIPTIC looks at three thematic pillars:

• Integration of ebuses into existing electric PT infrastructure, upgrading trolleybus networks with battery buses.
• Upgrading and/or regenerating electric public transport systems (flywheel, reversible substations).
• Multi-purpose use of electric public transport infrastructure: safe (re)charging of non-public transport vehicles (pedelecs, electric cars/ taxis, utility trucks).

The Zero Emission Urban Bus System Project (ZeEUS) aims to:

• Extend fully-electric solutions to the core part of the urban bus network composed of high capacity buses.
• Evaluate the economic, environmental and societal feasibility of electric urban bus systems through live operational scenarios across Europe
• Facilitate the market uptake of electric buses in Europe with dedicated support tools and actions
• Support decision-makers with guidelines and tools on "if", "how" and "when" to introduce electric buses
