Renewable fuels in public transport
ITS Research Seminar 31/10/2017. Presentation by Malin Aldenius, Lund University, Sweden 'Introducing renewable fuels in public bus transport – challenges and opportunities' Abstract I will present results from the studies conducted during my PhD so far, with focus on experiences from Swedish public transport regions. In Sweden, public transport was partly deregulated in 2012, which has led to that public transport mainly is organised on the basis of a comprehensive competitive tendering regime. However, some regions organise their buses in-house. I will address questions concerning the strategic motivations for using public procurement to stimulate renewable fuels, and what the practical challenges have been in relation to: strategies, costs, size and knowledge. I will also discuss how different ways to set requirements and organise public transport has influenced type and share of renewable fuels in regions, as well as which challenges and opportunities they have experienced. The findings come from qualitative comparative case studies, based on interviews and document studies. Bio: Doctoral student at Environmental and Energy Systems Studies, Lund University, since 2015.
