This paper presents the primary objective of a research project which aims at enhancing the world of e-mobility by highlighting the continuous evolution and demand of the Electric Vehicle (EV) in modern cities and the consequent need for more and more innovative charging systems.

All over the world, both the energy and transport sector are in a process of change. This paper present a novel approach of coordinating battery electric vehicle charging processes as an ancillary service for the grid.

Technology Transition Market Agent Model (PTTMAM), a system dynamics model based around the interactions of conceptual market agent groups in the EU. The authors assess strategies employed by automobile manufacturers towards the development and market penetration of electric vehicles.

Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, the e-mobility market has been aiming for a radical and substantial change of mentality by the community. The fundamental objective of this new vision is the reduction of CO2 emissions, which are the main cause of global temperature rise.

The long-term goal of the EU to achieve a competitive low-carbon economy is mainly focused on encouraging environmentally sustainable investments, in particular with regard to reducing energy consumption in buildings, the transition to electric vehicles and developing smart electricity networks, thus promoting the use of renewable energy to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by at least 80% by 2050 compared to 1990 levels.

This paper describes a study that explored opportunities for innovative e-mobility service business models through a systematic analysis. Furthermore, each e-mobility service depends on information technology (IT) support.

The Vehicle-2-grid (V2G) technology enabling bidirectional charging between electric vehicles and the energy grid system for frequency regulation and load balancing has the potential of significantly improving the financial viability of electric mobility.

Nowadays, electric buses are promising alternative solutions to replace the conventional diesel buses in public transport and to improve the air quality thanks to their zero-tail pipe emissions.

Foldable ultralight electric vehicles (E-ULV) are a promising key component for future sustainable traffic chains for urban regions with mountainous topography. This paper presents electric drive a...

The Northwest Electric Showcase Project is an effort led by Forth. The Pacific Northwest Electric Showcase set out to promote plug-in vehicles to the masses and educate and objectively stimulate electric vehicles sales and accelerate the buying process.
