Electromobility: Logistics and Business Ecosystem Perspectives Review

Abstract

In the evolving landscape of electromobility, the logistics domain is undergoing significant transformations, reflecting broader changes in both the transport and energy sectors. This study aims to present an exploration of the scientific literature indexed in Scopus dedicated to electromobility logistics and the business ecosystem. The methods used in this article include a classical literature review and a systematic literature review, combined with bibliometric analysis in VOSviewer software (version 1.6.19). These methods allowed for the analysis of keywords and research motifs related directly to the development of electromobility from a business ecosystem perspective. Results of this study indicate that while technological innovations play a significant role, the success of electromobility is also highly dependent on its efficient and collaborative business ecosystem of entities involved in transportation and energy sectors. This ecosystem, defined by mutual value creation and strategic collaboration along with infrastructure and logistics, has the potential to drive economic growth and create new green jobs in the energy and transport sectors. In conclusion, the study underscores the importance of a sustainable and balanced approach, emphasizing both technological advancements and the significance of a robust business ecosystem for the future of the electromobility business ecosystem.

The impact of ease of doing business and technological infrastructure on economic growth in the Arab world

“…There is a two-way street of influence between the two domains of influence, technical infrastructure and government. According to Grzesiak and Sulich (2023) technological infrastructure has the potential to influence governance by making data-gathering and analysis easier and more transparent. This has the potential to help businesses make better choices, enhance service delivery and use most of their resources.…”

Green Logistics Tram Charging and Path Optimization Considering Urban Impedance

“…Consider, for instance, the sequential arrangement of integers (6,2,5,4,3,1,7,10,9,8) representing the order of customer points. Following the insertion of the distribution center in compliance with load and time window constraints, the resulting arrangement is (0,6,2,5,0,4,3,1,7,0,10,9,8,0).…”

“…Through judiciously delineating the spatial arrangement of charging and swapping stations, the charging and swapping duration of electric vehicles can be curtailed, thereby mitigating disruptions and lateness in logistics 1 distribution and enhancing the efficiency and timeliness of logistics transportation. This holds momentous implications for catering to the surging logistics requisites in urban locales while attenuating traffic congestion and environmental degradation [3]. Secondly, optimizing vehicle charging and swapping routes can yield environmental and societal dividends.…”

Issues Related Transitioning to Electromobility: Regional and Spatial Aspects

“…Recent years have seen a significant increase in interest in electromobility among the public. In order to determine the impact of the development of electromobility on the innovativeness of the supply network, it is necessary to analyze the potential use of electric vehicles in logistics, taking into account their advantages and disadvantages (Grzesiak, Sulich, 2023).…”
