Potential of using existing PT infrastructure

substation in Oberhausen

Charging station Neumarkt (with the substation in the background in the top picture)

Battery-trolley-hybrid without overhead wire

Extended service on regional route without overhead wire

Multi-purpose use of electric infrastructure

Demonstration on Underground power grid to be used to charge TfL

fleet cars and utility vehicles + potentially Taxis: 2018: Taxis must

be „zero-emissions capable“

Duo- Charging point for cambio Carsharing and public parking space

• Higher investment costs for e-bus systems

–how to overcome the economic problem?

• Usage of tram/train „drive power“ for e-

buses legally not foreseen

• Re-selling of power complex and requires

electric energy supplier licence

Common challenges

Create a framework for growth for Car-Sharing

What can a city government do?

• Awareness and information

• Promote attractive services (tariffs, variety of cars, …)

• Establish visible stations (near housing, offices, etc.)

• Integration with public transport (season ticket + Car-Sharing service, proximity)

• Integration in new housing developments

• Integration of city’s overall sustainable transport strategy!

• ELIPTIC Workshop on E-Bus heating (‚zero emission vs. diesel heating) on 5.12.2017 in Bremen (in German only)

• ELIPTIC Final Conference 26/27 April 2018 in Bremen
