The BSR Electric project aims to enhance the utilization of e-mobility in urban transport systems by exploring unseized potentials and demonstrating applications of various types of urban e-mobility, such as electric city logistics, e-bikes, e-buses, e-scooters and e-ferries.

The project will guide public authorities, companies, transport planners and operators in the process of integrating e-mobility into urban transport strategies and help them to take informed decisions about investments into e-mobility. The role of TUAS in the project has been to co-lead the work package about gathering stakeholder information on theme-specific e-mobility solutions. TUAS has also contributed to analyses and conducted a pilot with a city-owned company in Turku to test end evaluate inner-city e-mobility logistic solutions.

The lead partner of the project is Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (LP). The other partners are ATI Küste GmbH Association for technology and innovation, Høje-Taastrup Municipality, Lindholmen Science Park AB, Zero Emission Resource Organisation (ZERO), Green Net Finland, Helsinki Region Environmental Services Authority (HSY), Institute of Baltic Studies (IBS), Tartu City Government, LTD Ardenis, Riga City Council, City of Gdansk, Urban Transport Administration Gothenburg, Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, Borough of Bergedorf.
