THE PEP Workshop, Green, Health-friendly, Sustainable Mobility in Urban Central Asia, 26 -27 September 2012, Almaty, Kazakhstan Ecodriving, e-Mobility with “Green” Electricity from Renewable Energy in Austria Peter Wiederkehr, Dr. sc. , Senior Policy Advisor Division of Transport, Mobility, Human Settlement and Noise Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Environment and Water Management Slide 1

Ecodriving Program Austria • • Started in 2004 by the Ministry for Environment Ecodriving is integral part of the national strategies on energy and climate protection • Part of the support program klima: aktiv mobil of the Ministry for Environment, implemented by Austrian Energy Agency • Accounted fuel savings of 5%: 400. 000 tons of CO 2 p. a. 170 million litres of diesel fuel p. a. Slide 2

Facts & Figures Austria ü 1000 Ecodriving trainers ü 235 company fleet operators trained ü 20. 000 training participants ü 90. 000 learner drivers trained p. a. saving of 50. 000 tons CO 2 p. a. …equals 20 Mio liter diesel p. a. ! Slide 3

Elements of the Eco. Driving Program Austria • • • Nationally coordinated trainings for drivers of cars, trucks, busses and agricultural tractors Elaborated handbooks and teaching material Certification scheme: klima: aktiv mobil master trainers Motivation and awarding: competitions Label for “green” driving schools Communication and awarness raising campaigns Slide 4

What is Ecodriving? • also known as ‘modern driving’ or ‘smarter driving’: it is the safe and smart driving style • more energy-efficient vehicle purchasing • Ecodriving mode supports modern engine technology • narrowing the gap between real fuel consumption and test cycle results Slide 5

Positive Effects of Ecodriving • Sustainable decrease of fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions by 5% (truck, bus) to 20% (cars, LDV) • Reduced noise (due to lower rpm) • Positive impact on traffic safety: up to 40% less accidents • Lower maintenance costs (e. g. brakes, tyres) • Less stress (less shifting gears, less braking) Slide 6

The highly effective rules of Ecodriving • • • Shift-up early (at low rpm) • cars at approx. 2, 000 rpm • you may skip gears Anticipate traffic flow (try to avoid braking) Maintain a steady speed at low RPM Check tyre pressures frequently Smart use air conditioning and electrical equipment Slide 7

Good practice rules of Ecodriving • Avoid idling - drive-off immediately after starting the engine; do not warm up the engine by idling, switch-off the engine at longer stops • Improve aerodynamics - close windows when driving at higher speeds • Fuel efficiency devices - make use of fuel saving of in-car devices (revolution counter, on-board computer, cruise control) • Mode of transport - avoid short car trips and consider alternative means of transport • Purchase of car - Fuel-saving starts with puchasing a fuel efficient low-emission car Slide 8

Certification Scheme • • Handbook and train-the-trainers-seminars: passenger cars, trucks & busses, tractors Train the trainers: 2 day seminar for instructors from driving schools and automobile clubs 560 passenger car trainers 400 truck/bus trainers 75 tractor trainers Eco. Driving training: one day training 8 -12 participants 2 -3 trainers theory and practice! Driving Schools: Label for “green” driving schools 21 associated driving schools Slide 9

Certification of driving schools! Slide 10

Fuel-efficient Driving Competitions CARS BUSSES TRACTORS - 30% fuel reduction (on average) - Champions‘ fuel use: 50% below NEDC fuel consumption figure (New European Driving Cycle) Slide 11

Ecodriving training for Learner Drivers • compulsory training in the final education stage • 90. 000 novice drivers complete an Ecodriving training every year • 14% fuel reduction on average • 4% increase of average speed • manual for driving instructors • DVD teaching video clips for driving schools Slide 12

Evaluation Ecodriving Trainings of the National Postalbus Service EVALUATION 3 years of monitoring, before and after the trainings 2. 800 drivers trained 2. 100 busses RESULTS (statistical analysis of 56. 000 measurements) - 6, 5% fuel consumption - 2 Mio litres diesel p. a. - 7. 100 tons CO 2 p. a. € 2, 8 Mio fuel costs p. a. saved Slide 13

International Eco-Driving EU-project ECOWILL 2010 -2013 AEA: coordinator of 13 national partners Participating international organisations: ACEA, CIECA, EFA, FIA, Ford, Leaseplan Focus 1: Ecodriving for learner drivers Focus 2: Short duration trainings (~1 h) for licensed drivers Monitoring the effectiveness of trainings Website: www. ecodrive. org Slide 14

Ministry of Environment supports alternative vehicles, especially e-mobility with 100% renewable energy >> Three pillars of the strategy of the Ministry of Environment to reduce GHG emissions from Transport: 1. Forcing of alternative vehicles, preferably powered by 100% renewable energy 2. Financial support for mobility management towards environmentally friendly and energy efficient transport 3. Information and awareness raising for environmentally friendly mobility (cycling; ecodriving) The action program klima: aktiv mobil supports measures to reduce CO 2 emissions from transport. E-mobility with electricity from renewable energy sources facilitates the transition towards an environmentally friendly transport system.
