Group Project CO2 Neutral E-Mobility
1. CO 2 Neutral E-Mobility ISUenergy project group no. 2 Sanem Genc (Turkey) Christina Braun (Switzerland) Julius Kühn (Germany) Evelina Kompare (Slovenia) Cagdas Karakurt (Turkey) Christina Kontaxi (Hellas)
2. Overview The Flyer Bike experience Ideas and Aims of our Project - Infrastructure - Energy Source - Social Acceptance PV Integration: Off-Grid and Feed-In Summary and Ideas for Financing

4. Target Group: Mainly targeted to tourists Summer season (May to September) Infrastructure: 5 flyer rental stations 7 hotels with flyer bikes 15 batteries exchange stations (hotels, restaurants) Disadvantages: - not always 24hrs/day availability - charging of batteries is dependent from the grid, at the specific charging stations Introduction Current State of Flyer Bike Flims-Laax-Falera
6. Idea and Aim of the Project (1/2) Build on the existing Infrastructure… … but make it more flexible and cleaner Expand the Infrastructure: Keep current stations ( 5 flyer rental stations , 7 hotels with flyer bikes ) and expand the 15 batter y exchange stations to a total of 30 stations located at bus stations Advantages: + Increase of the availability of charging stations + Increase of the visibility of the Flyer electrobike + Increase of the mobility of the users Use the Sun as the Source of Energy: Replace the grid dependent charging stations with a dual strategy of PV integrated systems: 1. off-grid charging stations at the bus stops 2. charging stations with PV modules, connected to the grid for the larger charging stations Advantages: + Clean, CO2 neutral mobility + Abundance of energy source + For larger stations: possibility of feed-in solar energy to the grid
7. Idea and Aim of the Project (2/2) Expand the Target Group: Make the charging station available for the local population for them to use with their own electro bikes! Example: use a card with integrated chip to open the charger stations at the bus stops Sell subscription to the locals who own an electro bike to use the stations along with the tourists who rent the bicycles Value Added to the Region: The Flims-Laax-Falera region has an overcapacity of beds in the summer Interest to attract more tourists during the summer Advantages: +The clean mobility concept – powered by the sun – has the potential to attract more environmentally conscious tourists + The clean mobility concept will add to the current commitment of the region to use more environmental-friendly solutions (see “Gr ünbünden” on the bus) + The charging stations will increase the mobility of both tourists and the local community, as well as the number of users! + Interesting and innovating solar architecture of PV bus station
8. PV Integration I: Off-Grid Charging Stations @ Bus Stop (1/2) Off-Grid Charging Stations at the Bus Stop Install charging station at the 30 Bus stops in the Flims-Laax-Falera Region with 3 batteries using Solar Energy only to charge the bike
10. Calculations for Off-Grid Charging Stations at Bus Stations (1/2) Estimated global irradiance in Falera by PVGIS* * http://re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/pvgis/apps3/pvest.php # Average solar Irridation 408.31 Wm2 PV Cell First Solar 75W Thin Film CdTe Efficiency: 10.7% Nr of Batteries in Charger 3 batteries Average charging time 6hrs per battery Energy needed to charge the System 256 Wh/m2 x 3 batteries = 768Wh Area needed for PV 2.93m2 Power installed 300W Total Cost of one Charging Station 3 EUR per Wp installed = 900 EUR + 100 EUR for storage battery Total 1000 EUR Infrastructure Bus Stop is not included Cost of 30 charging stations 30´000 EUR
11. Calculations for Off-Grid Charging Stations at Bus Stations (2/2) For the system that has 3 charger : Average solar radiation during summer season in Falera : 408.31 (W/m 2 ) We use First Solar 75 W solar panel with %10.7 eff. (120cmx60cm =0.72 m2) Electrical Input : 408.31 (W/m 2 ) x %10.7 = 43.69 (W/m 2 ) Average charging time : 6 hours per battery Energy that we get from sun : 43.69 (W/ m 2 ) x 6 hours = 262.14 (Wh/m 2 ) Energy that we need to charge system : 256 (Wh) x 3 (battery) = 768 (Wh) Area that we need : 768 (Wh) / 262.14 (Wh/m 2 ) = 2.93 (m 2 ) Power that we need : 2.93 m2 x 43.69 W/ m2 = 128.01 W (2 PANELS) Power that we need to install : 2.93 m2 / 0.72 m2 = 4.07 (4 PANELS) 4 x 75 W = 300 W

Also address what kind of bike: it is a city bike, suited for mobility on plastered roads, NOT off-road. Easy to handle and very convenient in a mountainous region as Flims-Laax-Falera
To mobility of users: imagine this system had already been in place when we got here: using the electrobike to get to the courses and especially home and back to the public lecture in the evening would have greately increased the mobility for the students living in Laax
Worst case scenario (all batteries & our support battery are empty)
