Renting an e-bike (also known as a pedelec) in Germany is relatively straightforward. Here is a general guide on how to do it: Find a Rental Service: There are many services that offer e-bike rentals in Germany, both nationwide chains and local shops. Some popular options include nextbike, Call a Bike (offered by Deutsche Bahn), and Lime for more urban-oriented e-bikes or scooters. Many cities have local bike rental services as well. You can usually find information online or at local tourist information centers. Register and Book: Most rental services require you to register with them before you can rent a bike. This typically involves providing some personal details and payment information. You can usually do this through the service's website or app. Once registered, you can book an e-bike. Pick Up the E-Bike: Depending on the service, you might pick up the e-bike from a designated station, or it may be a dockless service where you can pick up and leave the bike anywhere within a designated area. The service's app will typically show you where you can find available bikes. Use the E-Bike: When you're ready to start riding, you'll usually need to unlock the e-bike using the service's app. Always remember to follow the local rules of the road, and to wear a helmet for safety. Return the E-Bike: Once you're done, return the e-bike as per the service's instructions. This usually involves locking the bike and ending the rental via the app. Make sure to return the bike at a designated station or area (if required) to avoid additional charges. Remember, terms and conditions, as well as prices, can vary between different rental services, so it's a good idea to check these before renting. #bluerelocation #relocation #ebike #rent #germany

„The Future of Urban Mobility is Intermodal” – This is the topic of the podcast episode #31 “The UrbanTech VC” by 2bX, published on May 1st, in which I was a guest. 🚀 Key learnings within the episode : - Intermodal mobility is under-promoted, with only 5% of travel in Germany currently being intermodal. - There is a critical need to focus on the digital layer and foster collaboration among providers - shifting from the default focus on physical layer and capacity measures. - A successful mobility turnaround is impossible without the significant involvement of public transport. Since yesterday, you can listen to the episode on Apple Podcast, Spotify, or Google Podcast! https://lnkd.in/dZdcHq49 #futuremobility #intermodal #turnaround #innovation #urbanmobility

On My latest video is now live on YouTube! This week, we traveled between Zürich 🇨🇭 and Hamburg 🇩🇪 with ÖBB on one of their #Nightjet services operated by CFF and Deutsche Bahn. The main goal of this video was to review one of ÖBB's newest couchette offerings, the Comfort Couchette. Due to the increasing popularity of Nightjet and the shortage of rolling stock, ÖBB internally converted 22 old seat cars into brand new couchette cars under a project called "Luna". 🌙🚆 This initiative aimed to match the comfort levels offered on the brand-new Nightjet trains. The refurbished couchette cars feature a bright interior, compartments with four couchettes (instead of six) with control panels, power outlets at each bed, improved airflow, more luggage space, three bike racks, an accessible toilet, and a compartment. Overall, it’s an amazing product, and I’m quite blown away by the end result. ÖBB's workshop has done an outstanding job renovating these coaches; they truly look like they're brand new from the manufacturers. If you want to experience these new couchettes, when booking on ÖBB’s website, select the “Comfort Couchette” option; there’s no price difference. However, this video leaves me with one big question: Why isn't the Comfort Couchette the standard for couchette class on Nightjet trains? If ÖBB was able to transform 22 seat cars into couchettes, why not industrialize this transformation and make it the norm for couchette accommodations within the Nightjet network? Enjoy the video! 🚆🌙 #NightTrain #NachtZug #TrainDeNuit https://lnkd.in/eBnwqyHw

I have got a new favorite german phrase: "CBAM-Berichtsvalidierungsfehler" Thank you, DeepL! Today we started the process of producing the CBAM report for Q1 2024 for one of our clients. Nothing really changed, one HS code, one supplier, one product, different weight. We generated a new XML, tested it on the conformance server and it worked! When the client tried to upload it to the Declarant Portal, we got this error message: Error message: If 'Type of Determination' field value is: 'Estimated values including default values made available and published by the Commission' THEN options in 'Type of Applicable methodology' should be:'Default values made available and published by the Commission' OR 'Other Methods' ELSE IF 'Type of Determination' field value is: 'Actual data' THEN option in 'Type of Applicable methodology' should be: 'Commission rules' OR 'Other Methods' Path: /goods[0]/emissions[0]/direct/applicableReportingRulesType We changed the text in the remarks fields accordingly, still to no avail. Have you experienced this? Do you have a solution? #cbam #report #carbonfootprint #validationerror

How to lower CO2-Emissions of the Transportation Sector   „Innovation instead of instruments of torture against car users” is the title of my editorial on the German debate on CO2 emissions of the transportation sector. https://lnkd.in/ec8sGv7g For many weeks, the liberal German Transport Minister Volker Wissing has been criticized for not reaching the targets for lowering CO2-emissions by the transportation sector.   The Public German Environment Agency (Umweltbundesamt) presented a report on “Getting the Transportation Sector on Course” (Report 59/2024) with suggestions for lowering the emissions of the transportation sector. These seem like a list of torture instruments for individual transport, car users and freight transport by lorry: Speed limits would be only a minor thing. What is asked for would be a tax called “Malus for combustion engines”, to be paid with the road tax of the first year. From 2025 onwards, for a simple Volkswagen Golf with a petrol engine of 150 horsepowers (110 kW), there would be an additional tax of 2760 Euro, from 2030 onwards a tax of 30.240 Euro, then mercifully reduced to half of the price of the car. On top, for all private cars, there is the request of a tax on every kilometer covered, initially 1,3 Eurocent, later more than 7 Eurocent per kilometer. Thus, individual transport should be cut by one quarter. Also freight transport should pay more, with tolls for all lorries and roads, which should be drastically increased.   The reason for these drastic measures should be the inability of the transport minister to increase the number of electric cars on the roads. But it is not his fault that there are not enough possibilities to charge cars at home or at work or that there is not enough green energy to charge the cars. This is the responsibility of the Green Minister for the Economy and Climate, Robert Habeck.   The general problem of German climate activists is that they want to make an example of Germany, forgetting the rest of the world. In Germany, in general, CO2-emissions have shrunk by 37 per cent from 1990 to 2022, in the EU by 27 per cent, while they have risen by 62 for the whole world, in China by 285 per cent. During the same period, the emissions of the German transportation sector have shrunk by 10 per cent, while they rose by 19 per cent in the EU, globally by 72 per cent.   Lowering the German contribution to the World CO2 emissions – 1,4 per cent in general and 0,27 per cent for the German transportation sector – will not save the climate. While German climate activists seem to desire the end of the local car industry, the opposite would be necessary: Innovations of the car industry, clever regulation, and openness of consumers for change would offer the chance for a contribution to lower global emissions.

🔋🔌 Have you ever navigated to a charging station, only to find out, that the location wasn't quite accurate? With swarm data, we can change that! ☝🤓 Here’s how: today's navigation systems use "Points of Interest" (POIs) to guide you to a destinations. 💬 “At CARIAD, the POI Management brings together various data sources for Points of Interest, combines them with the navigation applications, and continuously updates and improves the database,” explains Volker Remuß, Product Manager, POI Management. 💡 One dedicated team focuses on "Charging Points of Interest" (cPOIs). Their accuracy can be improved with the Charging Feedback solution. This solution uses swarm data to refine the accuracy of charging stations and ensures that the POI database is always up to date. Here’s how it works: 1️⃣ When you start a charging session at a public cPOI, your vehicle shares the location to the POI Management database. 2️⃣ The Charging Feedback solution then validates the location or identifies potential improvements for the cPOI. 3️⃣ The enhanced data is merged with the existing database and updated in the system. Around 78,000 charging points locations have already been enhanced, improving the charging experience for Volkswagen, AUDI AG, Škoda Auto, CUPRA, SEAT S.A., and Porsche AG drivers! This also benefits users of our brand-specific smartphone apps, such as My Porsche and MyAudi.

This joined interview together with Christin is mentioning just a few of the various challenges we are facing when discussing about the transition of both, energy and mobility. However, the „we“ is playing a crucial role in the discussions and the path ahead, and should not be underestimated - neither in terms of the need of others, nor in regard of the potentials of bringing multiple perspectives, competences and #brightminds together. Among many other examples, this is why we at Ramboll are all in towards cross-sector collaborations, open-minded perspectives and sustainability!

Operating a rail mobility company can be a thankless job - when things go well nobody really notices, when they don't the complaints come hard and fast. But when your operation is facing such fundamental issues as the Deutsche Bahn is today, with abysmal on-time performance and significantly outdated infrastructure, the optics of touting calming fragrances and individually controllable privacy glass tinting really aren't good. What's needed to restore DB's reputation is targeted, well-managed investment to bring German rail travel back up to a high standard, not aromatherapy and fancy glass cabins.

The Danish Ministry of Transport recently calculated that every kilometer traveled in the country by bike instead of by car SAVES 🇩🇰 society and the economy 8.39 crowns or 1.12 euros. Every cyclist also makes a valuable contribution to socio-economic development through their mobility. This finding coincides with the statements of the former mayor of Copenhagen Morten Kabell. When asked how the city was able to afford these great bike paths, he replied: “I was often asked, how can you afford this? My answer: How can you not afford it? 25 years ago we were virtually bankrupt. So we invested in the cheapest infrastructure…the cycling infrastructure.” Other studies also show that every km of car travel means an economic loss, while every km per bike means an economic gain - provided that all negative effects that the car has on people, nature and the climate are taken into account in the calculation. Investing in a bicycle instead of a car, which should actually be in the interest of every municipality with a strained budget situation and in the interest of every finance minister who continues to insist on being in the black.

Evening of logistics experts from IWL AG and guests in #Ulm. I will take home three facts from the presentation of Prof. Dr. Yasmin Weiß (OHM Professional School / Technische Hochschule Nürnberg) on #ai. - 60-70 percent of the tasks currently performed by humans can be automated using AI and other technologies. - 83 million jobs will be lost by 2027 - 69 million new jobs will be created worldwide through AI by 2027. Incidentally, the figures come from McKinsey and the World Economic Forum. Many thanks for the excellent presentation of this complex topic, which is not just a matter for logistics. #ai #logistics #scm #jobs #automation #artificialintelligence
