In this paper the authors describe a simulation tool developed to study city wide scenarios of e-mobility. The tool is intended to support e-mobility stakeholders in finding effective solutions to facilitate a widespread and sustainable EV adoption in urban areas.

This paper aims to examine the distribution of the allocation of future charges to the various types of charging stations in order to provide a starting point for the evaluation of the need for charging infrastructure, i.e. its number, design and cost-effectiveness.

In this paper the authors derive basic requirements for building interoperable reservation systems and identify four generic approaches to reservation.

As part of the collaborative project “Cities in Charge”, Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Technology and Advanced Materials (IFAM) is investigating the possible contribution of battery storage systems for grid assisting charging of electric vehicles.

Focusing on the German market and using the test case of a renowned logistics service provider who trialed e-vehicles for commercial transport, this paper discusses potential shifts in grocery shopping habits, maps out perspectives, prerequisites and challenges for a shift to electric vehicles for their distribution and derives recommendations for industry and politics based on the findings.

In recent years, there has been an increase in the development of the electromobility (e-mobility) market, which directly results in the increased requirement of charging stations supplied from the public distribution network. Electric vehicles will be an integral part of the smart grid in the future.

This article describes urban transportation system based on information obtained from operation contracts of the transport cooperatives in Ambato’s city in Ecuador. In Ecuador, the City of Ambato has a public transport system which dependents exclusively on oil derivatives.

This paper presents a modeling approach based on numerical reduced-order modeling (ROM) to analyze the thermal behavior of electric traction motors.

The automotive industry is undergoing huge changes. Vehicles become connected and autonomous, the powertrains get electrified, intelligent service architectures for future e-mobility services are created. Production is increasingly automated, decentralized and controlled by robots.

Industrial power supply systems have to adapt to the impending turbulence on the energy market as well as the agility of the influences on the manufacturing systems.
