1 SOLUTIONS: BERLIN 14 APRIL 2016 Urban Electric Mobility Initiative Debashish Bhattacharjee, Human Settlements Officer, Lead Urban Mobility, Urban Basic Services Branch, UN-Habitat 1

2 2 The Challenges of Urbanization in the 21 st Century 1.Growing urban population A. Total world population: from 7 to 9.5 billion Urban population: from 50% to 75% B. In 40-50 years, 3 billion more people will be urbanized 2.Climate change; Air Pollution and Health; A. Urban populations use more energy per capita B. 70% of total GHG emissions attributable to urban areas; C. More than 7 million deaths attributed to air pollution;

3 Urban Electric Mobility Initiative (UEMI) 3

4 Projections of Energy Source for Mobility - Rationale for Urban Electric Mobility Initiative (UEMI) 4 Source: http://www.nachhaltigwirtschaften.at/e2050/results.html/id6753 International Energy Agency: Light-Duty Vehicle Evolution Elect. Vehicles are on the rise

5 Urban Electric Mobility Initiative : UN Climate Summit 2014 5 Multilateral Dev. Banks: “Increase their investments to support cities in attaining the goal of 30% of the LDV fleet being comprised of EVs.” Industry : “Increase the global market share of EV in cities to reach at least 30% by 2030.” Supply Side Demand Side Cities/ Governm.: “By 2030, EVs will form 30% of the fleet of light duty vehicles (LDV), plying in their cities”. Pledge between… &

6 Operationalizing UEMI: Linking Investments, Knowledge and Policy Action Plan UN Climate Summit 2014 6 The Urban Electric Mobility Programme Cycle http://www.un.org/climatechange/summit/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/07/TRANSPORT-Action-Plan- UEMI.pdf

7 E-Mobility : The Green Business Case 7 Gloal Value Chain of E-Mobility in 2020 – A World Bank Report Electric Mobility Can Promote Low Carbon Economic Growth Updated projections are needed ; Collaboration with other initiatives??

8 UEMI partners Open to stakeholders and orgnaistions active in the field of electric mobility Cooperation with other e- mobility initiatives o ZEV Alliance (California EPA and ICCT) o EVI (International Energy Agency) o C40 Clean Bus Initiative o European Green Vehicles Initiative

9 UEMI Actions Jointly working on implementation concepts for the integration of e- mobility solutions in a wider sustainable transport and sustainable urbanisation strategies (current case studies on cities in Brazil, India and China)

10 UEMI: Steps To Action-SOLUTIONS outcomes 10 EGM Barcelona 24-25 April 2014; Communiqué “Ascent Meeting” Abu Dhabi; 4-5 May 2014; High Level Dialogue Follow–up dialogue and gathering statements of intent from supply and demand side Actors Climate Summit 2014, New York; Launch of Platform and initial Pledges Michelin Challenge Bibendum, Chengdu, Nov 2015 EST, Colombo, Srilanka, Nov 2014 Post Summit continued pledge making and experience sharing Resolution in UN- Habitat Governing Council (Apr 2015) -Hub for Knowledge (Papers, Pool expertise, exchange, conferences etc.) -Coordination (Partners, City-Industry, commitments etc.) -Implementation of Pilot Showcases (Project designs etc.) -Management (Budgeting etc.) “Encourages MS to support initiatives aimed at improving access to sustainable energy and mainstreaming energy efficiency and sustainable energy systems to support the UEMI, while promoting hybrid and electric mobility as a priority in conjunction with urban policies in support of compact city planning, energy and resource efficiency, making the transition to sustainable sources of energy and better public transport systems and facilities integrated with safe and attractive non-motorized transport options.”

11 UEMI Partner Actions Example: ELIPTIC - Electrification of public transport in cities develop new use concepts and business cases in order to optimise existing electric infrastructure and rolling stock, saving both money and energy. strengthen the role of electric public transport, leading to reduced fossil fuel consumption and improved air quality.

12 Hyderabad E-Bike Share System 12 MetroRail – Free allocation of space at Metrostations Hyderbad bicycle club Greater Hyderabad Metro Company: metropolitan agency

13 UEMI tool kit Currently planned tools and guides o Co-benefits for climate and air quality of e-mobility solutions o Integration of e-mobility with walking, cycling and public transport o 2-Degree Pathway tool o Impact assessment tool o UEMI can contribute local case studies to EVI publications o Contributions to UEMI guides based on EVI activities?

14 Events and trainings COP side-events and debates o Joint launch of a declaration on electric mobilty (3 Dec.) o UEMI side-events o Break-out session at the Transport Day (6 Dec.) o ZEV/UEMI Event 8 Dec Webinars and e-learning o Cooperation with the SOLUTIONS project: http://www.urban-mobility- solutions.eu/resources/e- learning/ http://www.urban-mobility- solutions.eu/resources/e- learning/

15 UEMI in the New Urban Agenda: Habitat III Compact cities; Integration of Land use and Transport Planning; No pollution zones; Integrating Active and Public Transport; Urban Planning Preferential access of EVS for parking and lanes; Enabling frameworks for PPPs; Congestion Charging; Urban Legislation Decentralised power production from renewables; cities as power producers; more green jobs; Smart grids and Smart cities Urban Economy 15

16 Join the UEMI Open to all countries, cities, industry, associations and knowledge institutions active in the area of electric mobility Join the partnership at: www.uemi.net www.uemi.net Contribute to the actions, tools and events
