How ITS can contribute to urban freight efficiency Innovation in Road Transport, 2.10.2009 Opportunities for Improving Efficiency Zeljko Jeftic,  Project Manager, ERTICO – ITS Europe
Presentation overview Goods transport activities at ERTICO Quantifying the benefits Bases for successful pan-European deployment – Open platform Future developments Innovation in Road Transport, 2.10.2009
Public-private, multi-sector partnership with over 100 Partners from: Industry Infrastructure Operators Public Authorities Users Industry associations  Research institutes  Technology centers to promote ITS in Europe. ERTICO – ITS Europe  www.ertico.com
Goods transport activities at ERTICO  ...  towards increased efficiency of goods transport in Europe   ERTICO Partner Topic Group on Goods Transport is working on creating a roadmap for deploying goods related ITS services in Europe.  Core group comprises: IRU (convenor), Volvo, Logica, Satellic, Oracle, CRF (representing IVECO), CERTH… Innovation in Road Transport, 2.10.2009
Quantifying the benefits FREILOT – a pilot on urban freight energy efficiency During 1-year of operational driving measure and quantify the energy saving benefits from: Eco-driving support Adaptive acceleration/speed limiters Energy enhanced intersection control Dynamic management of delivery bays Other measures of success: Sustainable after-pilot operation Involve additional stakeholders (cities/fleet operators)
Quantifying the benefits To live up to the full potential of ITS cooperation between stakeholders is needed!
