4 1. Objective at different levels! Cradle to cradle islands project Demonstration of sustainable mobility on islands Cradle to cradle thinking! Province Fryslan Lookout for pilot demonstrations in short term Possibility of combining PV with mobility Stimulate electric mobility at regional/national level Being part of Wadden islands projects! TU Delft Innovate, develop and stimulate sustainable mobility solutions Finding the balance between sustainability, user demands and market by industrial design knowledge

5 2. Ameland ambitions C2C Sustainability Protect the attractiveness of the island Ameland development Stimulate and promote the alternatives of car Example function of the municipality

6 3. Ameland present situation (1/5)! Let us look in terms of car kilometers and bicycle kilometers on island! First car kilometers in high season! Second bicycle transport in low and high season

7 3. Ameland present situation (2/5) Average car trips per day on island Ameland (measured between 19 July till 01 August 2008)

8 3. Ameland present situation (3/5) Average bicycle trips per day on island Ameland (measured between 1 till16 march 2008)

9 3. Ameland present situation (4/5) Average bicycle trips per day on island Ameland (measured between 19 July and 1 August 2008)

10 3. Ameland present situation (5/5) Conclusion and opportunities! Possible reduction of car kilometers Alternatives for car commuting Infrastructure facilities for new vehicles! Creation of energy self sufficiency as an opportunity! Eneco, QWIC and Batavus interested in mobility developments on the island! Creation of interest from Local as well National Govt. in ongoing developments!awareness among islanders in order to change towards sustainable behaviour

11 4. Development directions! Short term directions Alternative solutions for commuting Possible combination of PV energy production and alternative mobility products Use of electric bicycles for commuting and touristic transport Charging stations with solar panels! Possible partners Cradle to cradle islands platform DuurzaamAmeland (Gemeente, Eneco, NAM en Gasterra) Local entrepreneurs (Bicycle rental companies and restaurants) Eneco (Energy supplier) QWIC

12 5. Solution directions (1/3)!First steps E-scooters for commuters E-bikes for tourists E- charging stations at selected restaurants and offices! Next steps Charging points at different locations Electric pendelbus for commuters Self sufficient charging points Electric service vehicles for campings and hotels Electric car and charging points for personal use

13 5. Solution directions (2/3) E-scooters as alternatives for car commuting 1. Identification of employers/companies want to participate in e-scooter services for its employees 2. Municipality will do a questionnaire to its employees in order to know their demands and priorities 3. Goal is to use e-scooters and electric bicycles for commuting in the place of using a car 4. The initial idea is to start with 10 products per company 5. Next step is to expand the facility with a solar powered charging point!

14 5. Solution directions (3/3) Electric bicycles for tourists 1. Identification of bicycle rental companies interested in providing electric bicycle service for tourists 2. Workshop at Gemeente for creating a plan 3. Eneco would provide charging stations in collaboration with Sparta for the first lot 4. Workshop took place in the first week of July 5. Individual meetings with bicycle rentals in sept 09 Next steps 1. Integral plan for charging stations and bicycles 2. Development of autonomous charging station Grid Charging point Charging point Charging point Power production/ supply Autonomous Charging point

15 6. Mobility demonstration! Natural fibre reinforced electric scooter! TU Delft collaboration with QWIC to develop next steps Present production model

18 7. Example autonomous charging station Frankfurt, Germany Electric vehicle recharging station Free of charge! Capacity 21kWh Enough annually to power 115,000 kilometers of travel for the average e- scooter Cost! Evergreen Solar, Inc a manufacturer of STRING RIBBON solar power products with its proprietary, low-cost silicon wafer manufacturing technology

19 8. Discussion Is the E-bike system more- C2C? Metabolism 5% of car system, but extra infrastructure Bicycle re-pair, re-use and re-cycle more locally (less transport) Future E-o-L systems without material and energy losses? Sustainable sources and infrastructure C2C? Electronics without toxics or special E-o-L treatment? Short term realistic concepts vis-à-vis long-term ideal? E-car system: doubts on short-term sustainability
