D2.5 – Thessaloniki Demonstrator

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. 

D2.4 – Valladolid Demonstrator

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.

D2.3 – Bologna Demonstrator

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.
