2. 1. Assessing design strategies for improved life cycle environmental performance of vehicles

   Author : Sofia Poulikidou; Anna Björklund; Per Wennhage; Gregory Keoleian; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle design; Design strategies; Lightweight design; Electric vehicles; Design for Environment DfE ; DfE tools; Life cycle assessment LCA ; Simplified LCA; Composite materials; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

   Abstract : Vehicle manufactures have adopted different strategies for improving the environmental performance of their fleet including lightweight design and alternative drivetrains such as EVs. Both strategies reduce energy during use but may result in a relative increase of the impact during other stages. READ MORE

4. 2. Diffusion of Battery Electric Vehicles : The Role of Total Cost of Ownership

   Author : Jens Hagman; Sofia Ritzèn; Johan Jansson; KTH; []
   Keywords : Total cost of ownership; electric vehicles; e-taxis; vehicle salespeople; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

   Abstract : Due to their high efficiency, zero tailpipe emissions and possibilities of using renewable electricity, Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) have been proposed as a way to alleviate the negative consequences of transport. However, as with other energy-efficient innovations market uptake or diffusion of BEVs have so far been limited. READ MORE

5. 3. Sustainable Personal Road Transport : The Role of Electric Vehicles

   Author : Sven Borén; Göran Broman; Henrik Ny; Louise Trygg; Jamil Khan; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strategic Sustainable Development; Transport Planning; Electric Vehicles; Testing; LCA;

   Abstract : Electric vehicles can play an important role in a future sustainable road transport system and many Swedish politicians would like to see them implemented faster. This is likely desirable to reach the target of a fossil independent vehicle fleet in Sweden by 2030 and a greenhouse gas neutral Swedish society no later than 2050. READ MORE
