Inspiration for this talk
‘CO2 reduction interventions for
transport: Towards a low carbon direction’
delivered in October 2010.
Examples from Japan, Denmark and
Germany

Denmark • Actions taken:• Electric cars
• Government investment into research • Hydrogen and electricity-powered cars exempt from tax
until 2012.• Challenges the idea of owning a car: leasing and
sharing• Bicycles • Improved public transport• Other measures investigated by the government
• Alternative fuels for buses, eco-driving, certification scheme, etc

Electric Vehicles - Overview2 Types of Electric Vehicles:
• All Electric Vehicle (EV)• Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV)
DfT Research suggests EV/ PHEVs could realise a 40% benefit in CO2 savings – utilising existing UK power mix. However, this could be increased with more low-carbon sources of power generation.

Electric Vehicles - Challenges Due to vehicle development lead times, Electric Vehicles will
initially be introduced into the UK market in low volumes with mass production and volume availability unlikely to occur before 2014.
Wide spread roll-out and uptake of EVs and PHEVs after 2014 will require:
• An increase in consumer confidence and education; • Improvement in battery performance and cost; • Charging infrastructure which keeps pace with demand; and,• Stimulation of the market through incentives which encourage
the uptake.

Impact on the National Grid:
The DfT has undertaken a high level assessment of the impact of EV/ PHEVs on national energy networks through a number of scenario based forecasts in the period up to 2030:
Electric Vehicles - Impact

Electric Vehicles - Impact• The EV is assumed to have an efficiency of
0.16kWh/km in 2010, 0.13kWh/km in 2020, and 0.11kWh/km in 2030
• Key finding – Sufficient national generating capacity to cope with the uptake assuming that demand for charging is targeted at off-peak periods where there is currently surplus capacity.
• This would be achieved through smart metering, charging and off peak tariffs.

Electric Vehicles - Opportunities• The development of EV/ PHEV technology provides an opportunity for
the UK to take a lead in the development and deployment of the new technologies required.
• There are national and regional opportunities for job creation throughout the supply chain including:
• The development of batteries, internal combustion engines for hybrids, electric motors, control systems, energy recovery systems, battery recycling and charging infrastructure.
• Regional Example - CO2Sence is heading up a bid for a share of European funding (OLEV, Plugged in Places scheme) worth up to £20 million to develop a network of electric vehicle charging points across the region.

Electric Vehicles - Opportunities• Facts and Figures (DfT, 2008):
• The UK is the second largest passenger car market in Europe;
• The sector employs 194,000 people;• It contributes an annual £9.6bn of added value to the
country’s economy;• 61% of the commercial vehicles in the UK are
exported. • This accounts for 13% of total UK manufacturing
exports

Trams
• User-friendly
• Comfortable
• Frequent
• Operate till midnight
• Reliable
• Environmentally friendly

• No CO2
• Great source of exercise
• Cost-effective
No • Poor cycle path
network especially in congested areas.
• Lack of bike parking and shower facilities at workplace.

Bike hire system• Up and running in
London • Ideal for short trips in
town• No need to buy own
bike• Multiple ways of
paying for rental• The fees could pay for
developing cycle path network

Tram-and-bike system• Ideal for longer journeys:
Bike to the tram stop, park your bike and take the tram.
• Do the opposite for your return journey.
• Faster than walking without the need for a car.
• Adds exercise to your daily routine.
• No petrol costs.• Solution for bike parking.

Public transport – train/bus
• Regarded as rather unreliable
• Long journeys on bus routes
• Train prices and VAT increase mean more expensive fares
Possibilities?• Cheaper / flat-rate
fares for region-wide public transport
• One monthly/weekly ticket for all carriers
• Preferential pricing for those who don’t own a car

Road congestion
• Transportation policy and road improvement to be planned early for growing areas
• Delivery of goods needs to be addressed to avoid HGV entering the city • Hub and Spoke.
