Climate change is now regarded as the biggest threat to global public health. Electric micromobility (e-micromobility, including e-bikes, e-cargo bikes, and e-scooters) has the potential to simultaneously increase people’s overall physical activity while decreasing greenhouse gas emissions where it substitutes for motorised transport. The ELEVATE study aims to understand the impacts of e-micromobility, including identifying the people, places, and circumstances where they will be most beneficial in terms of improving people’s health while also reducing mobility-related energy demand and carbon emissions. A complex mixed methods design collected detailed quantitative and qualitative data from multiple UK cities. First, nationally representative (n = 2000), city-wide (n = 400 for each of the three cities; total = 1200), and targeted study area surveys (n = 996) collected data on travel behaviour, levels of physical activity, vehicle ownership, and use, as well as attitudes towards e-micromobility. Then, to provide insights on an understudied type of e-micromobility, 49 households were recruited to take part in e-cargo bike one-month trials. Self-reported data from the participants were validated with objective data-using methods such as GPS trackers and smartwatches’ recordings of routes and activities. CO2 impacts of e-micromobility use were also calculated. Participant interviews provided detailed information on preferences, expectations, experiences, barriers, and enablers of e-micromobility.

In recent years, global studies have attempted to understand the contribution EDR could make to climate mitigation efforts. Whilst these studies are important to build a global picture, climate targets and policy are necessarily devised at the national level. To address this disconnect, we develop a bottom-up, whole system framework that comprehensively estimates the potential for energy demand reduction at a country level. Replicable for other countries, our framework is applied to the case of the UK where we find that reductions in energy demand of 52% by 2050 compared with 2020 levels are possible without compromising on citizens’ quality of life. This translates to annual energy demands of 40GJ per person, compared to the current OECD...

Particularly so when it comes to the potential impact that private EV charging might have on residential demand patterns. On the one hand, the more pessimistic view suggests that this could substantially increase the demand experienced during peak periods, exacerbating the problems associated with such peaks. On the other hand, the more optimistic view suggests that mass uptake of EVs could offer the opportunity to integrate them as distributed storage units. There is evidence of the fact that synchronisation of practices associated with the use of energy-intensive devices is largely to blame for the occurrence of large peaks in demand; the question of whether this is likely to be the case for EV charging as well remains. This paper adds to the literature on the analysis of the synchronisation of energy-related practices with an in-depth analysis commuting behaviour, using driver commuters as a case study. Cluster analysis is used to identify those commuters with distinctive commuting schedules, and socio-demographic profiling of clusters is carried out with a view to identifying any meaningful correlations that could help target policy interventions. Three characteristic commuting patterns were identified, with clearly distinguishable features in terms of the timing of commuting trips. The analysis of the energy-relevant activities shows that arrival times have a noticeable impact on the scheduling and distribution of periods of engagement in such activities.

The introduction of Urban Vehicle Access Regulations such as Low Emission Zones represents one policy that is being actively considered in city governance to address this problem, whereby the access of highly polluting vehicles is restricted to reduce traffic-related emissions. For such a policy to be implemented, an understanding of public support can prove useful by identifying the issues that underpin citizen reaction. This paper presents an assessment of public acceptability to Low Emission Zones through the application of a conceptual framework. This framework integrates an array of socio-psychological constructs sourced from theoretical models of behaviour and empirical findings on acceptability to Transport Demand Management measures. The framework is applied through a Structural Equation Model with the results of the analysis indicating that attitudes, policy specific beliefs, trust in government, and problem awareness all represent significant constructs in terms of their direct and indirect effects on acceptability. This information can contribute to the discussion within local governments by providing guidance in their policy development on what contentious issues need to be addressed in public engagement strategies.

Emerging research claims that virtual and physical work compliment rather than substitute for one another. This suggests travel demand stems from business strategies and achieving business outcomes. In building on these ideas, this chapter draws upon Schatzki's conception of timespace to capture changes in how two UK-based global construction and engineering consulting firms organise work and the implications in terms of demand for business travel. Overtime, particular forms of spatially stretched organisation which have developed are found to require the interweaving of timespaces through travel. As such, how each firm has evolved has in turn created the contemporary situation of significant and hard to reduce demand for travel.

Secondary data analysis presented finds associations between the high energy use practices of car travel and dog ownership. There is a strong association between the rate of dog ownership and car km travelled per person. This relationship holds when controlling for income, level of urbanisation housing type and demographic variables.

These metrics are derived from the New European Driving Cycle test procedure and provide an indication of the global and local pollution profiles of the local car stock. Exploratory spatial analysis indicates that these emission factors exhibit a substantial geographical variation across the local authorities, suggesting that some local car fleets are dirtier or cleaner than others. Spatial autocorrelation analysis indicates that a significant degree of spatial organisation in these emission factors is present, with a number of hot-spots and cold-spots identified. Interestingly, these emission factors are uncorrelated with one another, suggesting that they represent separate perspectives on the environmental sustainability ...

These zones may substantially alter the operation of the transport system and could lead to adverse consequences for certain segments of the car-using population. Such consequences may include reductions in accessibility, whereby the ability of certain segments to travel to the zone is diminished. This paper considers this issue of accessibility by outlining a spatial vulnerability assessment for the city-region of Edinburgh, Scotland, which evaluates spatial units (in this case, DataZones) according to three criteria. First, a DataZone’s exposure to a LEZ is determined by using vehicle registration data to calculate the proportion of the privately owned car fleet that does not meet the compliance threshold and locally modelled origin-destination data to d...

Here we used business model collaboration workshops to create 'archetypes' of new utility business models that were then tested with a representative sample of British energy consumers to explore their attractiveness to different segments of society. We show that some of these segments have a substantial appetite for new business models. However, the segments that choose these models are more likely affluent, educated homeowners. Without intervention, innovation in utility business models risks exacerbating existing social inequalities, as lower incomes, lower home ownership, and low education, result in lower preferences for, or no ability to engage with, new utility business models. We also find that institutional trust beyond the energy sector is a key driver of consumer segmentation.

Theorising the relationships between information communication technology (ICT), travel and work ... more Theorising the relationships between information communication technology (ICT), travel and work continues to preoccupy researchers interested in multinational corporations (MNCs). One motivation is the desire to understand ways of reducing demand for and the negative consequences of business travel. Existing studies offer, however, little in the way of theoretical explanation of why situations that require travel arise in the first instance and how they might be avoided. To address this shortcoming, this paper analyses two case study engineering consultancy MNCs to develop a novel sociomaterial perspective on the role of travel and ICTs. It introduces the concept of the synthetic work mobility situation which highlights the way ICT and travel exert agency that constitutes ways of working and the organisational form of MNCs. The concept also recasts questions about ways of reducing demand for travel as questions about ways of reconstituting the sociomaterial organisation of the MNC.

The negative impacts of fuel price spikes in terms of increased household expenditure and economic stress are unevenly spatially and socially distributed. Previous research has found that vulnerability to fuel price increases is higher in peripheral, peri-urban and rural areas, and that low income tends to be co-located with high car dependence and low vehicle fuel efficiency, with a compounding effect on vulnerability. The goal of this article is to test these hypotheses for England, providing new evidence on spatial patterns of vulnerability to fuel price increases at the small-area level. We propose a composite vulnerability indicator combining data on income, accessibility, vehicle inspection and vehicle registration for 2011. Within English city-regions, we find little evidence of the socially regressive patterns previously identified in the literature. This is explained by the persistent concentration of poverty in urban cores, as well as by the poor fuel economy of the vehicle fleet in wealthier areas, due to the prevalence of powerful vehicles there. On the other hand, our analysis suggests that the impacts of fuel price increases would be very unequal between city-regions, as the least sensitive metropolitan area (Greater London) is also characterised by high levels of adaptive capacity. We conclude by setting out an agenda for future research on spatial vulnerability to fuel price increases.

We argue that the style of policy making under these administrations departed significantly from that of previous decades, which had been characterised by the ascendancy of specific technical disciplines and decision-making norms about how transport planning should be carried out. Our key contention is that despite abandoning the idea of a single, overall narrative for transport policy, these governments (perhaps unwittingly) gave new life to broader debates about what transport investment is actually for and how investment decisions should be made. We interpret this as a shift away from the longstanding idea of a ‘deliberate’ strategy of intervention to a more ‘emergent’ approach, which raises important new questions about the future of transport policy both in terms of the objectives it seeks to realise and the relative infl...

Social influence is integral to the diffusion of private vehicles which are highly visible and fulfil practical as well as social functions. This paper provides the first meta-analysis of empirical studies which measure the strength of social influence on consumer vehicle choice. A systematic literature review identified 21 studies that examined three types of social influence: interpersonal communication; neighbourhood effect; and conformity with social norms. A random effects metaanalysis found a significant and small to moderate effect of social influence on vehicle choices (r=0.241, p<.001). The overall effect size did not vary significantly between types of social influence nor between types of vehicle (conventional or alternative fuel). However, further analysis using meta-regression found that heterogeneity in social influence effect size across studies was explained by differences in countries' cultural receptiveness to normative influence. These findings have important implications for policy and modelling analysis of alternative fuel vehicle adoption, for which diffusion is both a socially and culturally-mediated process. Highlights (max 6, max 60 characters each)  Meta-analysis of 21 empirical studies  Robust evidence of social influence on vehicle choice  Three types of social influence have similar effects  Strength of social influence similar for conventional and alternative fuel vehicles  Cultural differences between countries

Electrification, via mass market adoption of plug-in vehicles (i.e. battery electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles), has emerged as a front runner for road transport across the globe, but there are concerns that the pace and extent implied by many modeling studies is problematic and that assessment of (a) the heterogeneity in the market, (b) other low carbon vectors (e.g. conventional hybrids, hydrogen fuel cell) and (c) life cycle energy and environmental impacts have been relatively neglected. This paper aims to fill these gaps by examining the timing, scale and impacts of the uptake of plug-in vehicles in the heterogeneous UK car market from a consumer perspective. To achieve this aim it (a) brings together a bespoke disaggregated model of the transport-energyenvironment system (the UK Transport Carbon Model) with previous work by the authors on heterogeneity in the demand for and supply of plug-in vehicles and (b) applies the improved model to develop future low carbon scenarios that assess the potential impact of different investment pathways and policy approaches to the electrification of cars with the view to meeting the UK's legally binding carbon budgets to 2050. The results show the importance of accounting for the heterogeneity in and dynamic nature of the car market in terms of new technology adoption by private consumers, so called 'user choosers' and fleet managers, as well as accounting for potential effects on wider life cycle emissions resulting from different uptake pathways. It allows an assessment of the effectiveness of different policy instruments, market conditions (vehicle supply, private vs fleet market, vehicle segments) and social factors (consumer awareness, range ''anxiety", perceived charging requirements) on different consumer segments, thus providing more policy-focused conclusions on the likely pathways to high penetration of plug-in vehicles that may be required to meet future carbon and air quality targets.

While the first two approaches have been dominant, this paper further develops the third, addressing questions as to whether and why certain activities are inherently more difficult to switch away from the car. At the theoretical level, it builds on theories of social practice to put forward the notion of 'car dependent practices'. At the empirical level, it demonstrates that the application of sequence pattern mining techniques to time use data allows the identification of car and mobility intensive activities, arguably representing the trace of car dependent practices. Overall, the findings of this mining exercise suggest that the emphasis of existing literature on escorting children, shopping and carrying heavy goods as car dependent trip purposes is not misplaced. Our analysis adds to this knowledge by contextualising the information by providing detailed quantitative analysis of a larger, richer set of activities hitherto overlooked in transport policy. The article concludes by illustrating the policy implications of the approach adopted and the findings generated, discussing possible strategies to steer practices in a more sustainable direction by creating material alternatives to the 'cargo function' of car travel.

At the same time, activity-and practice-based approaches are increasingly proposed as the way forward for transport and energy research. In this article, we develop an approach inspired by both developments, by focusing on the car-and carbon-intensive food shopping practices of the 20% of households with the longest car travel distance as recorded in the National Travel Survey of Great Britain (NTS 2002-2010) for this activity. We present a four-cluster typology of gross polluters, highlighting the crucial role of frequency and the existence of a small but growing group of lowincome, older households with 'Shopping intensive' travel patterns. These results suggest that, while the households with the worst climate impact have a distinct socio-demographic profile, broader sections of the population are recruited into gross polluting patterns of food shopping travel. Also, while built environment policies remain key, significantly reducing transport emissions in this area requires a broader approach, taking into account the relationships between food shopping and eating practices.

One noteworthy development is the growth of the business-to-business (B2B) market, which is motivated in part by operators' desire to smooth the temporal profile of overall carsharing demand and thereby increase aggregate fleet-utilization rates. In contrast to the widely-1 Corresponding author FINAL AUTHOR VERSION TO BE PUBLISHED IN TRANSPORTATION Page 2 of 35 studied business-to-consumer (B2C) market, however, comparatively little is known about the B2B segment. This study fills this gap by drawing on a national survey of both Britain's B2B carsharing members (n=682) and employers' corporate travel administrators that oversee an organization's B2B carsharing membership (n=127). Analytical methods included both descriptive statistics and multivariate regression techniques. We find that twothirds (68%) of B2B members use carsharing for their usual business travel, and that half (51%) of them previously used their own car for such travel. Approximately one in seven (15%) respondents indicated that their carsharing membership through their employer has changed their travel habits by allowing them to commute to work less often by private car, as they do not require their own personal car for work-related travel during their workday. It appears that car use for [non-commuting] business purposes may increase, however. This paper concludes with a discussion of open questions that are suggested to motivate the future research agenda.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought previously unimaginable change to the level of mobility in the ... more The COVID-19 pandemic has brought previously unimaginable change to the level of mobility in the economy almost overnight. People who have never before worked from home have had to do so almost immediately, and business travel has stopped almost completely in a matter of weeks. At the same time, the uncertainty about how long social distancing restrictions will have to be in place is already focusing attention on how long it will take for demand for public transport to recover. The pandemic has therefore brought into sharp focus questions about the level of mobility the economy actually needs to function, and by extension, whether COVID-19 is an opportunity to radically reformulate our assumptions about how to decarbonise economic activity. The chapter will cover specific issues including: To what extent could virtual economic activity be embedded in place of activities requiring physical mobility, and for what sorts of activities and sectors? What would need to happen to maintain this? • Has the reduction in activity frequency led to new ways of consolidating how things get done? For example, the food retailing sector has reorganised very quickly to accommodate much greater online ordering and home delivery • How will the phased nature of lifting of social distancing restrictions impact on the longer-term attractiveness of public transport, cycling and car use and how varied will this be between places? How will the revenue support for transport services, the economic case for future capital investment in transport infrastructure and the appraisal frameworks required to govern them adapt to the post-COVID19 world.

Despite decades of focus on energy efficiency and technical solutions for vehicles and fuels, the... more Despite decades of focus on energy efficiency and technical solutions for vehicles and fuels, the transport sector is a large and growing contributor to the climate crisis alongside other serious environmental consequences attributed to the combustion of fossil fuel. Vehicle efficiency improvements have failed to outpace the demand for the distance travelled and have therefore failed to result in absolute reductions in energy used. This chapter takes stock at this pivotal point among a constellation of so-called transport ‘revolutions’ and ponders the need to reframe the core concept of ‘energy efficiency’ if it is to be a useful focal point for sustainable action in this sector. The core contention is that the goal of energy efficiency has become so embedded in the discourses attached to low carbon transport that it has crowded out discussion of any unintended consequences or, most importantly, where we want the taken-for granted efficient and decarbonised pathways to ultimately lead. An alternative framework is proposed which opens the debate around whether levels of mobility demand are themselves unsustainable and consistent and meaningful efforts to manage demand based on notions of ‘sufficiency’ might be a more effective and potentially equitable route to lower energy demand.

There is considerable speculation around the possibility of a ‘cultural shift’ affecting the scale and patterns of consumption and behaviour in ways that will lead to a lower impact, less energy intensive and potentially more community oriented society (Defra, 2008; Thogersen, 2005). This transition in the discourse from sustainable ‘consumption’ to sustainable ‘lifestyles’ implies a shift in the salient source of meaning away from consumption towards specific values, rules and social practices which are shared by groups of persons and constitute their ‘way of life’ (Evans and Jackson, 2007).

The UK government has been positive about being able to meet its share of the EU Kyoto Protocol targets for CO2reductions (12.5 per cent from 1990 levels by 2008-2012), and it has gone further in a Climate Change Bill to propose legally binding reductions of 26-32 per cent by 2020.
