1 Mobility as a Service: what does it mean? From fixed carriers to virtual carriers Eric Verhulst, CEO/CTO Altreonic NV City Car Summit Berlin, 16 th March /03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 1

2 Mobility issues Small parcels, pallets, containers, for goods Single person, families, masses... for people Real MaaService need: point-to-point Space and Pme (+ energy) are resources Density in space and Pme is the issue Measured in mass&volume payload / m2 speed Today: MulP-modal, space and Pme inefficient ConnecPon points are bowlenecks MulPple carriers needed 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 2

3 Is this the solu.on? ConnecPvity is the issue 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 3

Or is this the solu.on? No more cars/vans in city and replaced by TaxiBots? hwp://www.

4 Or is this the solu.on? No more cars/vans in city and replaced by TaxiBots? hwp:// projects/urban-mobility.html (OECD) 90 % less vehicles, 80% less parking space needed Mobility increases with up to 89% (in km) Less air, heat, noise pollupon Enormous economic consequences: MaaS 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 4

5 What did telecom do? Before: circuit switching = fixed physical paths Now: packet switching = virtual paths Time and space parpponing Result: Marginal cost of communicapon close to zero MulP-service: voice, data, anywhere, anypme 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 5

6 Packet switching in mobility Moving mass, not bits Trains: circuit switching Roads and cars: packet switching? Half-way: car is packet but payload capacity underuplised 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 6

7 Objec.ves of MaaS Increase density in space and Pme Sustainable = Decrease use of resources Free up space Decrease pollupon (air, heat, noise) Increase Quality of Service: Move more in less Pme More comfort Flexibility Shall we go electric? 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 7

8 City: City mobility vs. open road Less space available, dense infrastructure Shorter distances traveled, lower average speed More idle Pme (parking) Density is more of a pollupon issue Conclusion1: An e-car for the road is not a e-car for the city Other issues: How to bring the e-energy to the vehicles? 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 8

9 Solu.on approaches 1. Cost/vehicle/ride sharing schemes: Reuse idle/empty capacity in Pme and space Mix people and goods (parcels in the trunk) Works with exispng vehicles 2. Create versa.le vehicle for urban mobility: One example: KURT e-vehicle Safety and cost benefit: (semi)-autonomous No need for another Tesla 3. Distribute the charging infrastructure 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 9

10 1. Cost/ride/vehicle sharing Cost sharing = incenpve Ride sharing = bewer use of capacity Vehicle sharing = bewer use of resources Results: Saves money! Low investment: App + marcom Reduces traffic, congespon, pollupon, Improves Quality of Life 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 10

11 2. Modular and scalable urban mobility: a versa6le approach to deliver KURT-S-1P-90 KURT S-1P C-90 KURT-S-1P x 2P-90 KURT-M-1P-90-1C-90 -pallet KURT-S 1P x 1C-90 KURT-M 4P-100 One standardised self-propelled plahorm + modular/scalable superstructure 16/03/16 Altreonic - From Deep Space to Deep Sea Eric Verhulst, CEO/CTO

12 3. Distributed charging Each KURT vehicle has: BaWeries to last a full day in city A few KWh is enough ( Ceci n est pas une Tesla ) Charging infrastructure already exists: Each building has spare e-capacity Oqen parking space in front or in garage Slow charging during the night is OK Fee for using the charging connector Complement with carports and solar panels? 16/03/ From Deep Space to Deep Sea 12

13 The floor is yours Many inipapves are on-going Is this a valuable roadmap? Is this holispc enough? Is this cost-efficient? Is this realispc? What else is needed? MoWo: Keep It Simple but Smart! Feedback welcome Eric.verhulst (@) altreonic.com 13
