E-Mobility works is a European project realized under the program IEE (Intelligent Energy Europe) of the European Commission. The project is managed by the Austrian Grazer Energieagentur, with partners from 9 different countries across the EU.
The Project aims to integrate e-mobility in European Municipalities, strongly involving local businesses to ensure and lead a new decision-making process in Municipal Administrations related to eMobility. Did you know that E-vehicles have compared to conventionally fueled vehicles, many advantages: E-vehicles are more energy efficient (efficiency factor of a conventionally fueled car is 20 – 30 %, while e-cars show an efficiency factor of up to 80 – 85 %).
- E-vehicles may be easily supplied with all types of energy from renewable energy sources.
- E-vehicles reduce greenhouse gas emissions (if supplied with electricity from renewable energy source).
- E-vehicles are very cost efficient in terms of operation and maintenance.
- E-vehicles cause low noise emissions (particularly at low speed).
The e-Mobility Project implements these actions to support Municipalities:
- Creation of a local network of Municipalities and enterprises working on e-mobility that will analyze and realize new concrete possibilities to ensure a good development.
- Municipal Action plans dedicated to e-mobility, elaborating innovative business services such as vehicles or recharging stations and financial schemes to support them.
- Implementation of e-mobility action plans with a strong engagement of local stakeholders.
