Abstract

The presentation shows new mobility technologies and concepts to improve the citizen life in the urban area. Moreover an innovative approach with incentive scheme in a sharing system with Electric Vehicles (EVs) is presented.

Transport externalities are more relevant in urban areas because there are more vehicles and more people. New technologies in mobility sector allow reducing these negative impacts.

Sharing system with EVs is a valid alternative to the current concept of urban mobility with private vehicles. The reallocation task, strongly affects the company operating cost, and consequently the service price for users. An incentive scheme is proposed to involve users in the reallocation with a dual purpose: reduce the reallocation cost and increase user loyalty.
