This scale-up concept note focuses on enhancing the use of e-kick-scooters in conjunction with public transport in Hamburg, particularly in the city’s outer districts. The project aims to improve first- and last-mile connectivity, reduce private car use, and address potential challenges posed by the increasing use of shared e-kick-scooters. By creating dedicated parking zones and integrating e-scooters into the public transport app (hvv switch), the project promotes sustainable and intermodal urban mobility.
This scale-up concept note outlines the efforts to enhance electric mobility in Kathmandu, Nepal, by converting diesel vehicles into electric ones and introducing new electric three-wheelers (e3Ws) for both passenger and cargo use. The project focuses on creating an ecosystem of electric mobility to improve public transport and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The note provides a strategy for scaling the current demonstration activities, including monitoring prototype operations, informing commercial banks about potential loan schemes, and raising awareness among investors and operators.
