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)

EC co-funded research project “eCoMove”

Vision and motivation

The future Situation today

Inefficient deceleration
Wrong gear & engine speed
Excessive speed, acceleration
Poor anticipation
Congestion
Poorly synchronised signals
Choice of inefficient route
Lack of know-how, motivation

Energy consumption of “perfect eco-driver”

Research questions

1. To what extent can eCoMove solutions decrease fuel

consumption/CO2 emissions of vehicle/fleet/network with cooperative technologies?

2. How can eCoMove sustainably change the behaviour
f 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

SLIDE 5

Integrated approach for “Green Mobility”

Theoretical minimum fuel consumption for specific vehicle, driver and journey Theoretical minimum fuel consumption for specific vehicle, driver and journey

inefficient deceleration wrong gear/speed choice excess acceleration/speed congestion non-optimised signals inefficient route choice improvement not sustained lack of motivation

Factors

too many stops unstable flow, speed too high

SLIDE 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

SLIDE 7

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.

Project objectives

Target is to reduce up to 20% fuel consumption and therefore CO2 emission

Cooperative data exchange as enabler

SLIDE 11

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

n 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

ecoSmartDriving applications

SLIDE 12

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

ecoFreight & Logistics

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

SLIDE 13

ecoAdaptive Balancing & Control

strategies for traffic control, improving traffic network energy efficiency through traffic signal optimisation

ecoTrafficManagement & Control

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

SLIDE 14

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
