Elec­tro Mo­bil­ity in Lo­gist­ics - EML

The use of electromobility in urban freight transport can make a significant contribution to reducing local (especially particulate matter, noise) and global (especially CO2 if the drive power is generated using renewable energies) emissions. Nevertheless, the proportion of battery-powered freight vehicles is still very small at present.
The project examined in particular whether inner-city delivery traffic can be carried out with battery-powered vehicles and which charging strategies are conceivable for which logistical applications (scenarios) and which are promising under which conditions.
Among other things, it could be shown that current battery capacity-related range problems can be overcome by opportunity charging, and what contribution electric mobility can make to reducing CO2 emissions in urban freight transport.
