Probabilistic Load Flow Analysis of Electric Vehicle Smart Charging in Unbalanced LV Distribution Systems With Residential Photovoltaic Generation
2021
Author(s): Ramadhani UH, Fachrizal R, Shepero M, Munkhammar J, Widén J
In this study, a probabilistic load flow analysis is performed by modelling the variability of electric vehicle mobility, household load, photovoltaic system generation, and the adoption of photovoltaic system and electric vehicle in society.
The “Clean Vehicles Directive” (CVD) of the European Union sets binding minimum targets for the first time for the purchase of new low-emission and CO 2 -free buses in local public transport.
An Urgent Call for Radical Transport Climate Action to Accelerate Implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 13

Key Insights into Transforming the Informal Transport Sector
2021
Author(s): International Association of Public Transport (UITP)
Governments’ responses to the COVID-19 health crisis have had strong impacts on mobility, both on a local and global level. Public transport patronage has plummeted by 90% in some parts of the world, according to UITP’s COVID-19 Task Force, and the industry has been dramatically hit.
A Study on the Secondhand City Bus Market in Europe
2021
Author(s): International Association of Public Transport (UITP)
Strict requirements for local emission reductions, extensive environmental regulations and higher expectations on passenger comfort have led to a widespread demand for only brand new or newer buses in fleet renewal schemes.

This Policy Brief is addressed to city leaders, decision makers, urban planners, transport authorities and mobility service providers who wish to understand and improve the relations between public transport and land use in order to build an integrated and holistic approach of planning, and move towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Top-Down Sustainability Transitions in Action: How Do Incumbent Actors Drive Electric Mobility Diffusion in China, Japan, and California?
2021
Author(s): Trencher G, Truong N, Temocin P, Duygan M
In this paper, the authors examine strategies used by networks of incumbent state and industry actors in China, Japan and California to accelerate the production and diffusion of battery-electric or hydrogen-powered vehicles.
Optimal Fleet Size for a Shared Demand-Responsive Transport System With Human-Driven vs Automated Vehicles: A Total Cost Minimization Approach
2021
Author(s): Militão AM, Tirachini A
In this research, the authors develop a total cost minimization model for demand-responsive door-to-door shared transportation services, including operator and user costs. Optimization variables are vehicle size and fleet size for operation with human-driven and automated vehicles.
