E-Mobility NSR
North Sea Region Electric Mobility Network (E-Mobility NSR)


Summary

The project North Sea Region Electric Mobility Network (E-Mobility NSR) provided state of the art information, which helped policy development in e-mobility in the North Sea Region. It also provided insight into the gaps and needs in respect of infrastructure, logistics and preliminary standards for multi charging techniques. Ultimately, the project delivered a long-term basis upon which regional and local governments as well as other relevant stakeholders in the North Sea Region might engage on e-mobility.

Background and Aim

Aim

The project´s main aim was to increase regional accessibility in the North Sea Region by fostering e-mobility and stimulating the use of electric car transport across the region including the utilisation of electric vehicles in urban freight.

A main result was that electric cars could be used to travel across the North Sea Region more easily. The project helped the EU in meeting its climate commitments and unlocking the potential for substantial investments in the fields of e-mobility.

Background

The area of electric mobility (e-mobility) is a fast growing field and one of great strategic value to the North Sea Region. This is so because it not only helps to foster the scientific and technological development in the North Sea Region in an area of strategic interest, but also because it supports regional economic development and assists towards increasing its accessibility and achieving greater territorial integration. Furthermore, e-mobility contributes to reducing CO2 emissions and helps the EU to achieve the goal of reducing its emissions by 20% until the year 2020.

Several regions and cities in the North Sea Region seek to develop strategies and action plans to stimulate e-mobility by encouraging the use of electric cars for local transport. However, these activities are not fine-tuned or interlinked, meaning that valuable human and financial resources are not being put to full use. This limits the concept of e-mobility to individual cities or regions and leads to a limited use of e-mobility between these cities or regions, which characterises an untapped potential.

Therefore, the project aimed to develop the conditions to steer current and future developments, connect the various networks to form a true transnational “backbone” or “grid” within the North Sea Region for e-mobility and increase accessibility in the region.

  • State of the art information on e-mobility in the North Sea Region
  • User’s guide to transnational e-mobility infrastructure implementation
  • Virtual e-mobility route linking UK/North Sea Region partners
  • Pilots on fast charging integration of energy from renewable sources, battery exchange and recycling
  • Development of a smart grid concept with charging points
  • E-Mobility centres in the participating regions/cities
  • Forum and transnational strategy for Clean Urban Freight Logistics Solutions (CUFLOS)
