Deutschland-Nederland SHAREuregio

The ongoing urbanisation trend both in Germany and The Netherlands, is growing rapidly and has a structural effect on the mobility patterns of people. Having access to a number of flexible mobility offers as well as the improving accessibility towards mobility, is becoming more and more important. Owning a car is getting less important and especially the companies are facing a challenge to reschedule their companies mobility management.

The “SHAREuregio” project continues the development and integration of a flexible e-car- and e-bikesharing system for the Cities of Venlo and Roermond, the metropole Mönchengladbach and the Kreis Viersen. The new offer will be focussed on improving the air quality (reduce CO2 and NOx emissions) and increases the utilisation of natural resources and capital. This will be realised in an innovative, cooperative cross-border project looking at developing, testing and implementing new e-mobility models.

At the same time SHAREuregio targets an integrated approach meaning that “e-mobility as a service” platform, the mobility offers and transport modes connects in a better and more efficient way. SHAREuregio will offer e-mobility (e-cars and e-bikes) for business and private use.

The project will attract the use of electric vehicles and make the companies more aware about the theme of electric mobility. The project partners who will realize this project exist of municipalities in the project region, e-mobility providers, innovation companies, grid operators and a university. This consortium enables a wider know how and technology transfer within the region. A recent feasibility study with stakeholders in the region (including workshops) shows a need for a flexible mobility offer as well as the positive perspective that can be reached by this SHAREuregio project.
