ERTRAC

Guided by Systems Approach

Targeting Societal Challenges of Road Transport:

• Decarbonization

• Reliability

• Safety & Security

• Global Competitiveness

Need for a strong

Public Private

Partnership

Lund Declaration:

The European Technology Platforms must tackle the grand societal challenges of our time

• ERTRAC brings together all the stakeholders of the Road Transport System.

• ERTRAC links with other ETPs (transport and non-transport, e.g. for electrification)

Innovation Union:

Look at the whole innovation process towards the implementation of innovative technologies for transport.

• ERTRAC serves to coordinate efforts to develop and to execute research strategies, by developing a Strategic Research Agenda and implementation roadmaps, addressed to European and national levels.

How to tackle/mitigate the congestion?

CONGESTION =(is also)

URBAN ATTRACTIVENESS

“Congestion is inseparable from the very concept of

the city. By definition, a city is attractive”

14

Preserve and Improve Urban Accessibility

MicroCity: intelligent Parking Area

15

• Intelligent and economic charging :

•Free choice of energy

•Pooling of car and vehicle to grid

•Plug surfing

• New commercial trend to match new common urbanity/ individual

behaviour :

•Micro rent

•Premium car service

•Easy mode change – seamless mobility

•E-shopping, E-working

Reduce fatalities and severe injuries

Reduce cargo lost to theft and damage

All these challenges request to take a system approach:

• Vehicle • Infrastructure • Services • Energy & Resources

Decarbonization + Reliability + Safety & Security

16

Global Competitiveness

Improve Global Competitiveness by targeting Societal Challenges

R&D as the main tool to keep or reach global competitiveness

Results:

• Leadership in energy efficiency

• Sustainable Growth

• Green Jobs

Europe 2020 Strategy

Telematics versus connectivity

TELEMATICS Provides connection for data exchanges

with distant network external to the vehicle

CONNECTIVITY Provides connection for data exchanges

with local mobile devices in the moving

vehicles

• Bluetooth handsfree

• Music streaming

• Mirrorlink

• Emergency or breaking call

• Remote diagnostics

• Remote control

Valeo Approach

As an example Valeo product strategy is focused :

• CO2 reduction :

– Increased electrification with affordable solutions

– Improved weight and energy efficiency

– Engine downsizing or “right-downsizing”

• Safe driving + Safe interaction :

– Intuitive driving

– After PARK4U… VALETPARK4U has come true:
