Driving and parking patterns of European car drivers – A mobility survey
TRT was the leader of the JRC study, directly involved in the survey design, in the analysis of driving profiles and in the implementation of the database. The direct survey was administered by IPSOS. In this study a good deal of information on how cars are used in different countries was collected. This information is useful for the main purpose of the project – the estimation of the charging profiles and of the load profiles – but it is also a relevant source of data in itself. Furthermore, in the survey the attitude of individuals towards the electric cars was also investigated and interesting responses were collected. Finally, the database implemented is a tool that can be used to define and analyse scenarios concerning the penetration of electric drive vehicles in the fleet under a wide range of assumptions.
