Sustainable mobility demonstrations at Ameland
1. Objective at different levels
! ‘Cradle to cradle islands’ project
• Demonstration of sustainable mobility on islands
• Cradle to cradle thinking
! Province Fryslan
• Lookout for pilot demonstrations in short term
• Possibility of combining PV with mobility
• Stimulate electric mobility at regional/national level
• Being part of Wadden islands projects
! TU Delft
• Innovate, develop and stimulate sustainable mobility
solutions
• Finding the balance between sustainability, user
demands and market by industrial design knowledge

3. Ameland present situation (1/5)
! Let us look in terms of car kilometers and bicycle kilometers on island
! First car kilometers in high season
! Second bicycle transport in low and high season

Conclusion and opportunities
! Possible reduction of car kilometers
• Alternatives for car commuting
• Infrastructure facilities for new vehicles
! Creation of energy self sufficiency as an opportunity
! Eneco, QWIC and Batavus interested in mobility developments on the
island
! Creation of interest from Local as well National Govt. in ongoing
developments
!Awareness among islanders in order to change towards sustainable
behaviour

4. Development directions
! Short term directions
• Alternative solutions for commuting
• Possible combination of PV energy production and alternative
mobility products
• Use of electric bicycles for commuting and touristic transport
• Charging stations with solar panels
! Possible partners
• Cradle to cradle islands platform
• DuurzaamAmeland (Gemeente, Eneco, NAM en Gasterra)
• Local entrepreneurs (Bicycle rental companies and restaurants)
• Eneco (Energy supplier)
• QWIC

5. Solution directions (1/3)
!First steps
• E-scooters for commuters
• E-bikes for tourists
• E- charging stations at selected restaurants and
offices
! Next steps
• Charging points at different locations
• Electric pendelbus for commuters
• Self sufficient charging points
• Electric service vehicles for campings and hotels
• Electric car and charging points for personal use

5. Solution directions (2/3)
E-scooters as alternatives for car commuting
1. Identification of employers/companies want to participate
in e-scooter services for its employees
2. Municipality will do a questionnaire to its employees in
order to know their demands and priorities
3. Goal is to use e-scooters and electric bicycles for
commuting in the place of using a car
4. The initial idea is to start with 10 products per company
5. Next step is to expand the facility with a solar powered
charging point!

5. Solution directions (3/3)
Charging point
Grid
Charging point
Electric bicycles for tourists
1. Identification of ‘bicycle rental companies’
interested in providing electric bicycle
service for tourists
2. Workshop at Gemeente for creating a plan
3. Eneco would provide charging stations in
collaboration with Sparta for the first lot
Charging point
Power production/ supply
Autonomous
Charging point
4. Workshop took place in the first week of
July
5. Individual meetings with bicycle rentals in
sept ’09
Next steps
1. Integral plan for charging stations and
bicycles
2. Development of autonomous charging
station

6. Mobility demonstration
! Natural fibre reinforced electric scooter
! TU Delft collaboration with QWIC to develop next steps
Present production model

7. Example ‘autonomous’ charging station
Frankfurt, Germany
Electric vehicle recharging station
Free of charge!
Capacity 21kWh
Enough annually to power 115,000
kilometers of travel for the average escooter
Cost !65.000
Evergreen Solar, Inc
a manufacturer of STRING RIBBON™ solar
power products with its proprietary, low-cost
silicon wafer manufacturing technology

8. Discussion
Is the E-bike system –more- C2C?
•
•
•
•
•
Metabolism 5% of car system, but extra infrastructure
Bicycle re-pair, re-use and re-cycle more locally (less transport)
Future E-o-L systems without material and energy losses?
Sustainable sources and infrastructure C2C?
Electronics without toxics or special E-o-L treatment?
• Short term realistic concepts vis-à-vis long-term ideal?
• E-car system: doubts on short-term sustainability
