Mobile phone application data for activity plan generation
Activity-based models in transport are crucial for providing a comprehensive and realistic understanding of individuals’ activity-travel patterns, improving demand forecasting, policy analysis, and land use and transportation planning. While travel surveys have long served to develop activity-based models with complete activity-travel plans, they are often costly to collect and have small sample sizes. Mobile phone application data, one example o…
Electrifying company cars? The effects of incentives and tax benefits on electric vehicle sales in 31 European countries
Battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles have remarkable potential to reduce CO 2 emissions in road transport. Many governments have introduced incentives to accelerate the market penetration of these vehicles and several studies have shown their effectiveness. Vehicles owned by a company but allowed for private use by employees – so-called company cars – represent a large new car market in Europe. However, little is known a…
The effect of shared e-scooter programs on modal shift
Fostering sustainable cities necessitates a significant paradigm shift from motorised vehicles to active mobility. However, the impact of emerging transport modes like e-scooters in this transition remains unclear. To explore the potential of this shift, we polled 805 (non)users of e-scooters in Sweden via an online survey to explore (i) who are e-scooter users and (ii) how e-scooter use affects the probability of modal substitution for users. Th…
Electric scooter safety
Safe mobility is a prerequisite in the paradigm shift toward sustainable cities and societies. Yet, the serious safety concerns associated with the practice of emerging modes such as electric scooters (e-scooters) are a major challenge for a smooth adoption of these transport modes. We have systematically reviewed peer-reviewed e-scooter safety papers with a primary focus on transport and a secondary focus on medical research domains. Our finding…
Teaching sustainable development through entrepreneurial experiences
Purpose The purpose of this study is to address the challenges of teaching sustainable development to computer engineering students. Part of the problem is that they perceive the topic as irrelevant for their future profession. Design/methodology/approach To address this challenge, we introduced a project element into a course on sustainable development where the students developed applications for sustainable mobility together with the local pub…
A review of consumer preferences of and interactions with electric vehicle charging infrastructure
Disrupting mobility
Personal mobility is facing three major innovations that have disruptive potential: electrification, shared mobility and automation. In this perspective I present each of these on their own and look at their role in disrupting the auto industry, the transport system and energy system. The largest disruptive potential lies in the combination of these three innovations, i.e., in the shared autonomous electric vehicles (SAEV). While shared mobility …
