How Urban Delivery Vehicles can Boost Electric Mobility
2020
Author(s): International Transport Forum (ITF)
This report presents policies and private sector initiatives for the electrification of urban delivery vehicles. Electric vehicles have low operational costs and the high mileage of delivery vehicles maximises net savings from converting a fleet.
A Comparative Study on Detection of Combustion Vehicles and Electric Vehicles in New Era
2021
Author(s): Swain PK, Shendge A
The aim of this paper is to discuss different techniques/methods available currently to detect electric and combustion vehicles (EVs) and their comparative study to find the superior method of detection.
An Evaluation Framework of Automated Electric Transportation System
2021
Author(s): Jansuwan S, Liu Z, Song Z, Chen A
Automated Electric Transportation (AET) is an innovative concept that aims to integrate energy, vehicle, highway, and communication infrastructures. It provides an electrified transportation system to support in-motion energy transfer through wireless charging of inductive coupling in the highway.
Allocation Optimisation of Rapid Charging Stations in Large Urban Areas To Support Fully Electric Taxi Fleets
2021
Author(s): Cilio L, Babacan O
This research provides a case study for Istanbul using real-time global positioning data from fossil-fuel taxis currently operational in the city. This case study tests the performance of the proposed infrastructure, determined by the framework, by simulating a taxi fleet of the same size as the one currently operating in Istanbul.

2021
Author(s): Leal Filho W, Abubakar IR, Kotter R, Grindsted TS, Balogun A-L, Salvia AL, Aina YA, Wolf F
This paper provides a comprehensive review of the literature and provides a detailed analysis of the current development of electro-mobility in Europe, assessing social, economic, and environmental aspects under a circular economy context.
MEC Intelligence Driven Electro-Mobility Management for Battery Switch Service
2021
Author(s): Cao Y, Zhang X, Zhou B, Duan X, Tian D, Dai X
As a key enabler in the green transport system, the popularity of Electric Vehicles (EV) has attracted attention from academia and industrial communities. However, the driving range of EVs is inevitably affected by the insufficient battery volume, as such EV drivers may experience trip discomfort due to a long battery charging time (under traditional plug-in charging service).
Data Driven Approaches for Sustainable Development of E-Mobility in Urban Areas
2021
Author(s): Nigro M, Ferrara M, De Vincentis R, Liberto C, Valenti G
This study focuses on a modeling framework to support mobility planners and energy providers in the sustainable development of electric mobility in urban areas.
Handbook of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Implementation
2021
Author(s): NITI Aayog, Ministry of Power (MoP), Department of Science and Technology (DST), Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), WRI India
The handbook provides a step-by-step approach to build out the EV charging infrastructure roadmap, moving from an assessment of EV charging requirements to location planning and arranging electricity supply to models of on-ground implementation.
Privileging Electric Vehicles as an Element of Promoting Sustainable Urban Mobility—Effects on the Local Transport System in a Large Metropolis in Poland
2021
Author(s): Borowska‐stefańska M, Kowalski M, Kurzyk P, Mikušová M, Wiśniewski S
The study used two sets of data: information on infrastructure and traffic management; and the recorded road network loads and traffic volumes generated by a given shopping centre—the E. Leclerc shopping centre (a vital traffic generator within the city of Łódź, Poland).
