Important results from the project
The project increased knowledge about multi-dwelling households, their car ownership and future charging needs. A quantitative decision support with high geographical resolution was developed, qualitatively supplemented by perspectives such as business models, responsibilities, local factors and user preferences. An interactive web map was published, as well as a geospatial cost estimate for public charging infrastructure based on historical costs. Furthermore, a market analysis was carried out.
Expected long term effects
The project is expected to provide decision-makers in cities, municipalities, regions and authorities with a solid knowledge base, about a relatively unexplored target group, for future strategies and policy design for an efficient, equitable and needs-based expansion of public charging infrastructure. The project can also promote the need for increased research on a target group that constitutes approximately 50% of households and over 30% of car ownership – crucial for achieving climate goals.
Approach and implementation
RISE acted as project leader and coordinator. The core group included those who carried out the work (quantitative and qualitative analyses, project management, communication, etc) with funding from FFI, incl. RISE, Lindholmen Science Park and Power Circle. Three participating actors (Stockholm Stad, Strömstadsbyggen and Parkering Göteborg) contributed with local studies. Monthly meetings were held with the entire consortium to collect input on interim results, consisting of 13 partners.
