PROJECT SUMMARY SMARTSET develops and shows how freight transport in European cities and regions can be made more energy-efficient and sustainable by a better use of freight terminals. SMARTSET provides examples of good practice that can support cities, regions and countries to contribute to the European Union ‘ ‘ targets for reduction in carbon dioxide emissions and improvement in energy-efficiency. SMARTSET is structured around three core aspects for creating successful and attractive terminals. SMARTSET is a project, co-funded with around EUR 1.8 million by the Intelligent Energy Europe Programme of the European Union.

BACKGROUND By implementing low-emissions vehicles for the feeding of cargo, suburban districts of the city centers will be relieved of rom large quantities of emissions. By implementing an established and effective system for urban freight delivery the number of kilometres driven will be further lowering the possible emissions which may arise from a transition period, where for example CNG powered vehicles are used. The need for more efficient solutions that lead to less transport kilometres and a more sustainable economic model are key factors of a long-term success in implementing a working model for urban freight transport. By the introduction of electric-powered freight delivery vehicles, SMARTSET greatly contributes to reaching the goal by 2030 on ‘zero-emission urban logistics’.

OBJECTIVES, METHOD & APPROACH SMARTSET aims to Create cost effective solutions and sustainable business models for combined consolidation and zero- emission distribution of goods. Demonstrate a model for zero-emission last mile distribution that can be adapted in a number of major, medium sized and small cities in Europe. Demonstrate the potential of electric-powered distribution vehicles to and within cities. Develop incentives and restrictions to stimulate consolidated distribution with electric-powered vehicles preserving and improving the quality of distribution services. Method and approach 8 application sites will develop sustainable business models for freight distribution and increase the use of clean vehicles, by stimulation through incentives and restrictions. This approach is unique to SMARTSET and will be tested in both ‘leader’ and ‘follower’ sites. SMARTSET provides a platform for the transfer of actions and knowledge from leader sites to follower sites, as well as for the exchange of experience.

IMPACTS AND DESIRED OUTPUTS Reduction of 9,051 tonnes CO 2 emissions per year Reduction of 36 GWh energy consumption per year Reduction of 3,104 tonnes energy consumption per year Reduction of 50% vehicle kilometers generated from distribution 5 terminals operating on market based conditions during the project period 8 business models for terminal schemes covering different geographical sites 3 business models for terminal schemes envisaged to be set up after the project period Reduction of 9,051 tonnes CO 2 emissions per year Reduction of 36 GWh energy consumption per year Reduction of 3,104 tonnes energy consumption per year Reduction of 50% vehicle kilometers generated from distribution 5 terminals operating on market based conditions during the project period 8 business models for terminal schemes covering different geographical sites 3 business models for terminal schemes envisaged to be set up after the project period

KEY BENEFITS OF SMARTSET Showcasing new solutions for improving the attractiveness of terminals! Reducing the energy impact of freight transport in the sites! Cost effective solution and sustainable business models! Incentives and restrictions for consolidated distribution with electric vehicles! Demonstrating a model for zero-emission last mile distribution! Demonstrating the potential of electric- powered distribution vehicles! Uptake of cleaner and energy-efficient vehicles for the last mile delivery! Shift to more energy- efficient modes for longer distance transport!
