Looking forward Innovative ideas and how to take advantage of them 12 November 2013, Stuttgart, Germany Siegfried Rupprecht, Rupprecht Consult

Where is the EU moving?

Framework conditions of EU – Transport Policy  Trends  higher profile of urban transport (climate change!)  clearer priorities of networks, topics, instruments  EU funding more strongly connected to EU policy goals  stronger monitoring of policy implementation

EU Policy Initiatives during 2013  strategies for alternative fuels and charging infrastructure ("Clean Power for Transport"; Jan 2013; incl. draft directive)  consultations and roadmaps to implement Transport White Paper  new infrastructure policy (TEN-T; Oct 2013) and "Connecting Europe Facility"  European Innovation Partnership "Smart Cities and Communities" (High Level Group, Oct 2013)  operational planning of regional policy programmes for 2014 – 2020  research and innovation programme "Horizon 2020" 2014 – 2020 (launch: mid Dec. 2013)  Urban Mobility Package (end 2013?) … and still a lot to do!

Urban Mobility Package (Dec. 2013?)  sustainable urban mobility plans (SUMP)  criteria for more effective planning (ELTIS-Guidelines)  "high quality planning" increasingly basis for EU funding  traffic safety: "zero fatality" vision  urban freight logistics  maintain urban core functions  access management  which systems, policies are effective ("patchwork")  improve coordination among actors

Horizon 2020 : "smart, green and integrated transport"  sustainable urban mobility plans  open data  multimodal travel info  innovative infrastructure  vehicles & batteries  small business innovation  "Smart Cities and Communities"  "CIVITAS 2020"  advanced bus concepts  traffic safety analysis  cooperative ITS  modal shift strategies  electric public transport  urban freight  growth in public transport  walking & cycling

"Smart Cities and Communities"  large lighthouse projects integrating energy, transport, ICT sectors  partnership between municipalities and industry  holistic approach integrating existing or very near to market technologies in an innovative way:  (nearly zero) or low energy districts (energy from local resources, refurbishment of buildings, crosscutting ICT for management of energy/ transport systems)  integrated infrastructures (networks, street scenes, sites, including smart grids, broadband infrastructures, poly-networks)  sustainable urban mobility ( integration of energy/ fuelling infrastructure with vehicle fleets powered by alternative energy carriers for public and private transport, including logistics and freight)  200 m€ EU-funding 2014/15 (plus other sources)

"CIVITAS 2020"  "CIVITAS 2020" extended to entire urban mobility area of transport work programme  EU-funding 100 m€ in 2014/15  2014: research and demonstration tasks  2015: research and demonstration tasks (incl. 50 m€ for CIVITAS demonstration  two-stage application process  timetable (1 st call)  publication mid Dec 2013,  stage 1 proposals end March/ stage 2 proposals August 2014?  project start end 2014/ early 2015 (?)  up to 70% funding (plus 25% flat overheads)  CIVITAS demos:  EU contribution: 12 to 18 m€  consortia of 4 – 5 cities with strong common interests

"CIVITAS 2020"  measures selected from integration areas:  clean fuels and vehicles  collective passenger transport  demand management strategies  mobility management  safety and security  car-independent lifestyles  urban freight logistics  transport telematics

And the TIDE rolls on …
