Air Quality Preservation through Innovative Solutions in the ?LIFE for Silver Coast? European Project
Author(s): Antonino Capillo*, Alessandro Mancini, Gian Piero Joime and Fabio Massimo Frattale Mascioli
Background: Climate Change and pollution are plagues of our time and, as a reaction, energy production relies more and more on Renewable Energy Sources (RESs). The introduction of Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) will lead to better air quality and Climate Change impacts mitigation. In fact, ZEVs do not emit neither Greenhouse gases nor pollutant substances, except for life cycle, frictions from break and wheels emissions. In addition, ZEVs integration in Smart Grids (SGs) contributes to a more efficient use of renewable energy since ZEVs can act as batteries (Vehicle-to-Grid paradigm). In the ‘LIFE for Silver Coast’ European Project, coordinated by PO.MO.S. (Polo per la Mobilità Sostenibile), a sustainable intermodal mobility system is developed aiming environmental preservation of the ‘Silver Coast’, an area in Italy of signifi.. View More»
