Madrid, February 8th, 2024– Sustainable mobility is changing, moving away from
traditional transport towards greener and more efficient alternatives, with
urban mobility and micro-mobility at the forefront of this transformation. To
analyze this and other trends, the second edition of the eMobility Expo World Congress,
to be held in Valencia, Spain, from February 13 to 15, will present the latest
developments in urban mobility and micro-mobility in a context in which the
rise of electric vehicles, autonomous driving technology and shared transport
options, such as bicycles and scooters, are reducing pollution and congestion
in cities.
Representatives of companies such as Manuel Ortiz, from Freenow; Carmen Ortega-Monasterio, from Cooltra, and Manuel
Martinez, manager of the Municipal
Transport Company EMT
of Valencia, will delve into how cities
are presented as arbitrators, judges and guardians to ensure a sensible and
decarbonized transition with limited resources, at a time when multimodality
and hybridization, supported by new transport technologies, are some of the key
realities.
"Urban
mobility has undergone a profound transformation in the last decade. To
accelerate the decarbonization process, cities must integrate smart mobility
solutions into the urban fabric, projecting a future where mobility is a key
pillar of urban development", explains Jesús Haro, director of
the eMobility Expo World Congress.
Innovative forms of urban mobility and intermodality
Drones, mobile robots, cargo bikes, and electrified vans also play an
important role in this model change. In this sense, the congress will address
how these innovative technologies not only improve the efficiency and
sustainability of delivery processes, but also create new opportunities for
companies to improve their delivery strategies while minimizing their
environmental footprint, especially in complex delivery scenarios.
Another emerging technology to improve the efficiency of goods in cities
and reduce the carbon footprint is EVTOLs, an aircraft that uses electric power
to fly, take off and land vertically. This is why integrating air transport of
people and goods into cities is already being studied to reduce traffic
congestion, improve air quality and reduce the environmental impact of
transport. James
Lancaster of Enterprise Mobility, Ben Ross, fromLiftango, and Julian
Scriven, managing director of Brompton Bicycles, will discuss how integrating air travel with other forms of
transportation can help create a more efficient and cost-effective
transportation system.
Sustainable and smart cities
The congress will also address the importance of intermodality and
integrated transport systems in cities with experts such as Tatiana Gaudés, Councilor for the Environment and Mobility of Zaragoza City Council, Olga Meliz, from the Metropolitan Area of Barcelona (AMB) and Chris
Lane, Head of Innovation at Transport for theWest Midlands. Increasingly, unique shared mobility platforms are
appearing in cities that provide citizens with a range of public and shared
services to decongest and make urban, metropolitan and interurban areas more
sustainable and safer.
In addition, Maria Jose Aparicio, Mobility Coordinator of Madrid City Council, Jesús Carbonell, Delegate of the Safety and Mobility Area of Valencia City Council, and Xavier Patón, Area Manager of Mobility, Infrastructures and Urban Services of Barcelona City Council, will analyze the latest trends in electric, shared and autonomous mobility and their influence on urban planning. They will also discuss how these innovations can contribute to more efficient and sustainable cities.As for the mayor of Benidorm, Antonio Pérez, he will share the transformation that the city has undergone based on sustainable mobility and the digital transformation of its services.
