socio-economic implications of new
technological solutions
MAIN ACTIVITIES

approach (innovation policies, on-going R&D, and development
initiatives).
• New policy framework that increases the knowledge economy component
of regional development initiatives in a range of fields.
• A coordinated set of trans-national pilot projects: Eco-tourism, Energy,

e-mobility Pilot for VLOTTE
• VLOTTE is owned and run by the Vorarlberg electricity service
provider VKW
• VLOTTE was at its start the largest e-car trial in Europe with
approx. 150 cars
• VLOTTE provides aids for electricity powered cars – currently
five different cars are backed by VLOTTE under the following
requirements
– Cars have to be used as a fuel powered car replacement
– Cars have to be powered by Li-Ion or Zebra batteries
– Cars have to be registered in Vorarlberg and have to be used in
Vorarlberg at least for 90 per cent
– Kilometres travelled has to be higher than 7500 km/year
Pilot Objectives
• Examine and validate user involvement and requirements
• Examine how public aids and funds for e-mobility can help to
innovate and change the people transport sector
• Examine how existing electric cars can be used more
efficiently and according to end-user needs and therefore
examine possibilities for new products
• Bring together public and private interests for leasing, buying
and renting electric cars
• Create a sustainable ecosystem for innovation in the emobility sector in the Vorarlberg region
