  2. EC co-funded research project “eCoMove” 22.5 M � • Total budget: 13.7 M � (DG-INFSO) • EC funding: • Project duration: 1. April 2010 – 31. March 2013 • 32 Partners: • OEMs (Ford, Fiat, BMW, Volvo Trucks, DAF Trucks) • Automotive suppliers (e.g. Continental, Bosch, Magneti Marelli) • Map suppliers (NavTeq, TomTom) • Traffic system suppliers & Road operators (e.g. Peek traffic, PTV) • Communication systems & Network suppliers (e.g. NEC) • Universities & Research Institutes (e.g. DLR, IKA, TNO, TU Munich) 2

  4. Research questions 1. To what extent can eCoMove solutions decrease fuel consumption / CO 2 emissions of vehicle/fleet/network with cooperative technologies ? 2. How can eCoMove sustainably change the behaviour of private and professional drivers into a more eco- friendly driving style ? 3. What impact have eCoMove solutions in a cooperative environment for the traffic system of a city/region/network (smoother flows, congestion avoidance, shorter travel distances and times)? Our challenge as a project: to have all sectors working towards integrated solutions and standards

  6. Finding the answer: Focus on existing inefficiencies • Pre-trip inefficiencies – Vehicle condition – Trip planning • On-trip inefficiencies – Primary driving tasks • Accelerating/decelerating • Gear changing • Idling • Keeping speed • Unnecessary stops – Secondary driving tasks • Inefficient routing (due to unexpected events) – Non-driving tasks • Vehicle condition & (electrical) energy consumers

  7. Project objectives To develop a combination of cooperative systems and tools using V2V and V2I communication to help: • drivers sustainably eliminate unnecessary fuel consumption; • fleet managers manage their vehicles more economically and promote eco-driving through feedback & incentives; • road operators balance traffic flows in the most energy efficient way. Target is to reduce up to 20% fuel consumption and therefore CO 2 emission

  10. Cooperative data exchange as enabler

  11. ecoSmartDriving applications • ecoTripPlanning (pre trip) application to enable green routing • ecoSmartDriving (on trip) comprising three applications – dynamic ecoNavigation : integrating information from the traffic centre, infrastructure, ecoMaps, ecoCooperative Horizon – ecoDriving support : dynamic advice to drive with least fuel consumption based on driving context, traffic, driving tasks and strategies, driver’ driving style, vehicle typology and fuel usage – ecoInformation : information to tune other vehicle functions to minimise fuel consumption • ecoPostTrip (post trip) driver’s record used to optimise eco-driving coaching • ecoMonitoring relevant eco floating car data distributed anonymously to the traffic control centre

  12. ecoFreight & Logistics • in-vehicle Truck ecoNavigation, i.e. most efficient route for trucks • ecoDriver Coaching System for goods vehicle drivers: – Pre-trip : ecoDriving training system with virtual simulator where the driver experiences the eCoMove system and its use cases – On-trip : real-time eco driving advice on in-vehicle display – Post-trip : fleet management backoffice to analyse trends, give feedback to the drivers, handle incentives • cooperative ecoTour Planning taking into account previous missions – Find the best combination of vehicle, trailer, route, driver, system configuration based on Mission information, Traffic Management data, Truck & driver models and Routing system – Feedback from previous missions to adapt /optimise the planning & routing system

  13. ecoTrafficManagement & Control • ecoAdaptive Balancing & Control strategies for traffic control, improving traffic network energy efficiency through traffic signal optimisation • ecoAdaptive Traveller Support to drivers through information on traffic state, route recommendations and speed profile data needed by on-board assistance systems • ecoMotorway Management combining energy-optimised flow management on interurban network with ramp metering and merging assistance at vehicle level

  14. Validation & Evaluation • Conduct a study on European level on driver motivation and behavioural change • Validate that eCoMove technologies, applications and services meet the functional and non-functional requirements (e.g. data privacy and protection) • Demonstrate that the eCoMove framework supports the interaction of the applications and services to meet the expectations of all stakeholders • Show that eCoMove technologies, applications and services enable a more energy efficient land-based transport of passengers and goods
