SUMMARY:optiTruck conference
DESCRIPTION:As the optiTruck project approaches its conclusion in August of this year\, this conference will present preliminary results of three years of work by the consortium partners through technical presentations and interactive sessions. Register now and join us in Brussels on 2nd July to learn and discuss fuel efficiency for road haulage. \nThe automotive industry has made a substantial effort in recent years to develop powertrain technologies to improve the fuel efficiency of Heavy-Duty Vehicles. However\, due to increasing road freight traffic\, projections indicate that the energy use and CO2 emissions of these vehicles are expected to remain stable at the current level over the long term unless policy action is taken. This outcome is clearly incompatible with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transport by around 60% below 1990 levels by 2050. \nTo tackle this issue\, the optiTruck project – optimal fuel consumption with Predictive PowerTrain control and calibration for Intelligent Truck – brings together the most advanced technologies from predictive powertrain control and intelligent transport systems in order to achieve a global optimum for consumption of fuel and of other energy sources and consumables\, while achieving Euro VI emission standards for heavy duty trucks (40t category).  optiTruck brings together 11 partners from 7 European countries who focused on the creation of the global optimiser consisting of a set of dynamic\, intelligent control and predictive components designed for effective powertrain management\, utilising the environment data related to the transport mission\, road topography\, weather and road conditions and surrounding vehicles. \nParticipation to the event is free\, but registration is mandatory. Click here to register \nMore info: optitruck.eu

SUMMARY:Smart Mobility: an opportunity for growth" conference
DESCRIPTION:Enter a massive dose of technology into the passenger and freight mobility system in Italy to achieve those goals already reached in other countries with smart mobility\, such as a 20% reduction in travel time and a 10% increase in infrastructure capacity . This is the objective of the proposals that TTS Italia will present in Rome on July 11th at the “Smart Mobility: an opportunity for growth” conference\, addressing the Government and institutions\, also in view of the next budget law\, and the local administrations committed to drawing up the SUMPs. \nTTS Italia will present two documents to guide the choices of institutions and local authorities and direct their priorities. \nItaly is a country that moves by road. 91.19% of total movements (goods and people) take place on the road with obvious negative externalities in terms of congestion\, environmental pollution and safety. To this it should be added that the demand for road transport presents significant territorial imbalances\, as traffic flows are essentially concentrated on some critical lines and nodes around the main metropolitan and industrial areas of the country. On the security front\, the absolute values of road accidents\, even if lower in comparison with previous years (with the exception of the number of deaths that have returned to growth compared to the previous year)\, remain very high\, especially in urban areas where there is about 75% of accidents\, with extremely worrying social and economic impacts. \nSmart management of mobility means significantly affecting critical issues. Experiences started in other European countries and in the United States have shown that the application of ITS leads to a reduction in travel time of 20%\, to an increase in network capacity of 5-10%\, to a decrease accidents of 10-15%\, congestion of 15%\, polluting emissions of 10% and energy consumption of 12%. These are benefits that can be obtained with relatively modest investments and\, in any case\, much lower percentages than those necessary for the construction of new infrastructures. In particular\, according to European Commission data\, every 1 euro invested in ITS cooperative services (C-ITS) yields 3 euros in terms of return in the period 2018-2030. \nThis is why TTS Italia is convinced that investing in smart mobility is a growth opportunity for Italy: a country that moves in a more intelligent and sustainable way produces development and progress.\nThe document “TTS Italia proposals for Smart Mobility” which will be presented and discussed in the first part of the morning of 11 July therefore indicates the priorities on which to intervene to restore momentum to the mobility system of people and goods\, with the goal of introducing and expanding the use of intelligent transport technologies and systems. \nClick here for more information.
