This deliverable showcases the integration and assessment of innovative logistics solutions within the urban environment of Thessaloniki aligning with the city’s ambition to become a zero-emission city by 2030. The project conducted extensive data collection and analysis, encompassing operational data from local logistics partners and socioeconomic data from the Region of Central Macedonia. The work involved demonstrating two key use cases: the installation of micro-hubs in public spaces and the simulation of Physical Internet (PI)-inspired green last-mile solutions utilizing digital twin (DT) technology.

The document describes the actions conducted in the Valladolid LL, which aim to solve the problems derived from the distribution of goods in the city and the externalities that are connected with this in both environmental and operational terms. With this view, the report is structured around three use cases: (i) monitoring of loading and unloading (L/U) areas using artificial intelligence; (ii) implementation of an innovative and sustainable solution of contactless parcel delivery; and (iii) techno-economic comparison of the use of combustion vehicles and I-FEVS prototype vehicles in delivery services.

This document outlines the set up and operation of Bologna LL that consists in the realization of the Nearby Delivery Area (NDA), a measure included in the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) and in the Sustainable Urban Logistics Plan (SULP) of the Municipality and Metropolitan City of Bologna, combined with a collaborative approach between logistics operators and with the utilisation of zero emission vehicles. By fostering this collaboration, the Bologna LL aims to create a dedicated area for logistics activities in close proximity to delivery destinations within Bologna city center Limited Traffic Zone (LTZ). Specifically, the NDA functions as a microhub where freight is transferred from conventional vans to light electric delivery vehicles.

This document outlines the set up and operation of Helsinki LL that consists of the three piloting sprints designed iteratively based on the previous lessons learned. The pilots were aiming at demonstrating the feasibility of autonomous delivery vehicles in urban logistics by implementing various service models for businesses and residents in Helsinki. Moreover, Helsinki LL was demonstrating the use of cargo bikes and consolidation between multiple logistics service providers to see whether it would be financially sustainable model for the companies to fasten their shift towards emission-free deliveries. These operations were supported by the carbon-neutral goals of Helsinki city.

This deliverable documents the work performed in “Task 2.1 LLs Management and Validation” that foresees the definition of the management process and a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the implemented solutions to evaluate and validate the operational effectiveness, as well as the environmental, economic and societal sustainability of the innovative measures within the LLs. It also contributes to identify the barriers to uptake and means to maximize the transferability potential of the developed last mile solutions. Based on their unique visions and challenges, each Lighthouse Living Lab defined specific goals and real-world use cases to foster collaboration among diverse stakeholders in developing innovative solutions.
