Source: EIT, January 2021 – The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) and the MOBY project released a series of reports regarding e-micromobility. In the MOBY project, that stands for Living Lab e-micromobility, conditions for e-micromobility usage have been analyzed. According to EIT, cities can now count on the support of a framework to assess the current situation of e-micromobility in their city. Find below the 4 MOBY reports.

The 4 MOBY-related reports

Overview of e-micromobility related conditions and constraints

‘’The specific conditions and solutions in the field of e-micromobility have been mapped. The analysis consisted of two parts, first the regulatory, planning, financial conditions for usage of these new transport modes were assessed, then the mobility-related requirements including user needs and travel behaviour were discovered.’’

European City Dialogue on Micromobility

‘’Organised as a conference of the innovation project MOBY, this publication summarises the conference European City Dialogue on Micromobility on 12 November 2020.’’

Living lab e-micromobility – MOBY Guideline of best practices, and results of e-micromobile integration potentials

‘’In this report, an in-depth review of research and statistics to illustrate how e-micromobility has become an integral part of urban mobility systems. The report argues that e-micromobility should be seen as a new mode of transportation, that responds to widespread demand for multimodal urban transport. In this way, micromobility could constitute an important part of an attractive alternative to private motoring and fossil-fuelled vehicles.

In line with the above, this study provides examples of current best-practices of e-micromobility in European cities (as well as Tel Aviv), and examples of how problems and complaints relating to the principles of e-micromobility have been met. As a silver line, this report presents a toolkit for regulations, policies, etc. that will help release the potential of micromobility as a vital part of sustainable, intermodal urban transport.’’

E-Micromobility Safety Assessment

‘’This report describes the performed safety analysis, infrastructure assessment and the review of the available technologies, considering the safety main priorities, allowing the proposal of effective safety measures.’’
