“…Most Asian cities do not have robust dedicated bicycling infrastructure, which benefits e-bike riders in China. Moreover, lack of marketing, experience, maintenance infrastructure, and higher up-front costs of e-bikes diminish overall market share (Cherry & Jones, 2009;Jones, Cherry, Vu, & Nguyen, 2013). Some Indian and South Asian markets have experienced growth in the industry.…”

“…Two other studies, one in Taiwan (Chiu & Tzeng, 1999) and one in Vietnam (Jones et al, 2013), investigated two-wheeler purchase decisions using the stated preference method. Chiu and Tzeng (1999) found that there is a significant potential for e-bike adoption, especially among women.…”

“…Chiu and Tzeng (1999) found that there is a significant potential for e-bike adoption, especially among women. Jones et al (2013) found that in the context of stiff competition with traditional motorcycles, relatively low performing e-bikes (i.e. SSEBs) have little chance for high market penetration without substantial performance and price incentives.…”

Electric bicycles (e-bikes) represent one of the fastest growing segments of the transport market. Over 31 million e-bikes were sold in 2012. Research has followed this growth and this paper provides a synthesis of the most pertinent themes emerging over the past on the burgeoning topic of e-bikes. The focus is transport rather than recreational e-bike research, as well as the most critical research gaps requiring attention. China leads the world in e-bike sales, followed by the Netherlands and Germany. E-bikes can maintain speed with less effort. E-bikes are found to increase bicycle usage. E-bikes have the potential to displace conventional motorised (internal combustion) modes, but there are open questions about their role in displacing traditional bicycles. E-bikes have been shown to provide health benefits and an order of magnitude less carbon dioxide than a car travelling the same distance. Safety issues have emerged as a policy issue in several jurisdictions and e-bike numbers are now approaching levels in which adequate safety data are able to be collected. Research on e-bikes is still in its infancy. As e-bike usage continues to grow, so too will the need for further research, in order to provide the necessary data to inform policy-makers and industry.

“…To develop effective policies and strategies for promoting e-bike usage, numerous studies have been conducted to investigate the characteristics of e-bike trips and mode choice behaviour [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. E-bike choice models have been developed to link the likelihood of e-bike trips with various contributory factors, including socio-demographic characteristics, physically built environment, attitudinal factors, and trip features.…”

“…modal-shift to the public transportation), whereas, on the other, the adoption of low-carbon vehicle technologies, such as Hybrid and Battery EVs (HEVs and BEVs) [14]. According to previous studies, the rate of adoption of these new technologies will depend on several factors, such as socio-economic boundary conditions [15], public incentives [16,17], and vehicles' usability [18e20]. However, although financial aids might play a key-role for the early-adoption of EVs (which are still an expensive technology compared to conventional fuel vehicles), these studies also underline the importance of the availability of a suitable infrastructure capable to support the shift of the energy demand from the oilsector to the electric energy utilities.…”

a b s t r a c tThe large scale deployment of electric vehicles in urban environment will play a key-role over the next decades to reduce air-pollutants in densely populated areas, but it will also require the development of an adequate recharge infrastructure. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how driving patterns databases and data mining can be used to appropriately design this infrastructure. This application focuses on the Italian province of Firenze, involving about 12,000 conventional fuel vehicles monitored over one month, estimating a fleet share shift from conventional fuel vehicles to battery electric vehicles ranging from 10% to 57%, and a mileage share shift from 1.6% to 36.5%. The increase of electric energy demand from electric vehicles ranges from 0.7% to 18% of the total demand in the province, with a number of charging spots three-to-six times higher than the number of circulating electric vehicles. Additionally the results show that a Vehicle-to-Grid interaction strategy can contribute to reduce from 5% to 50% the average daily electric energy demand in specific locations. This paper provides a description of the developed model and focuses on the valuable potential of the proposed methodology to support future policies for designing alternative fuel infrastructure in urban areas.
