MethOds and tools for comprehensive impact Assessment of the CCAM solutions for passengers and goods

Periodic Reporting for period 1 - Move2CCAM (MethOds and tools for comprehensive impact Assessment of the CCAM solutions for passengers and goods)

Période du rapport: 2022-09-01 au 2024-02-29

Move2CCAM has the overall aim to develop a practical system dynamics-based assessment tool that can enable the evaluation of CCAM use cases’ impact on mobility-, socio-economic-, public health- and environmental-related aspects. Using the tool and additional project key outcomes, Move2CCAM shall guide decision makers from public and private organisations through training courses and recommendations about optimal CCAM solution designs and how certain strategic design choices may affect the objectives of different stakeholders. Move2CCAM results will enable CCAM innovation and a facilitation of a common evaluation framework. To achieve the latter, the project has undergone an extensive citizens and organisations engagement campaign in which different use cases, business models, Key Performance Indicators have been co-created and evaluated across three regions, GZM in Poland, Helmond in Netherlands, and the North Aegean in Greece.
"WP1
WP1 has set the ground of the project with the definition of the use cases, scenarios, business models and indicators to use in the project as well as the roadmap of the data to collect, the procedures to establish for collecting and analysis data and the ethics and strategy to address this issue for the pending activities of the project (i.e. Activities 4 and 5, the Pan-European survey, case studies, trial of a real-world autonomous vehicle, virtual reality, social and environmental lifecycle analysis and the MOVE2CCAM Systems-Wide Impact Assessment Tool Modelling). Also, the WP1 has developed an online knowledge bank that contains the key findings from the literature review and from the co-creation Activity 1, Activity 2 and Activity 3 which is available in the project website (https://move2ccam.eu/index.php/resources/knowledge-bank).

WP2
As part of WP2 we produced a comprehensive strategy for targeting and engaging with organisations from a wide range of sectors including public authorities, transport companies, research organisations, companies involved in the development of CCAM solutions, health experts, NGOs etc. on a pan-European level. We also developed a framework for involving diverse citizen groups from each region in our project. During the past 18 months, we have implemented a series of co-creation activities with citizens and organisations from each participating MOVE2CCAM region (UK, France, the Netherlands, Greece, Cyprus, Germany, Spain, Poland). Activities have involved participation in online engagement platforms, online and offline workshops, as well as completing questionnaires.
As part of the implemented activities, we have explored perceptions of self driving vehicles and services, and ideas that could make them more relevant and tailored to each region (i.e. considering specific service features and scenarios of application). We have also investigated perceived impacts of the deployment of these services for participating regions, and estimated timelines for implementation.
Participating organisations have also co-created business models for self driving vehicles and services that have been identified via the co-creation sessions.

WP3
The data management plan was finalised and all the primary data collection tools were designed and applied. The data warehouse design was finalised. Secondary data collection and processing is ongoing. Methods for the impact analyses (citizens and organisations) and social and environmental lifecycle analyses were developed. These analyses are ongoing.

WP4
The main outcome of WP4 is related to the beta version of the MOVE2CCAM Impact Assessment Tool. The beta version of the tool sets the stage for a paradigm shift in assessing the transformative potential of emerging transportation technologies by presenting a detailed conceptual architecture, the visualization dashboard, and the intricate technical design. During the past 18 months, the theoretical and mathematical foundation of the tool were set up, while also producing the ongoing visualization dashboard of the tool and initiating discussions about enhancing the exploitability and sustainability of the tool.

WP5
The areas of work under WP5 were twofold. Firstly, through T5.1 T5.2 and T5.3 the necessary communication and dissemination channels were put in place, allowing the transferring of Move2CCAM’s outcomes to the wider CCAM community. In this first period, the consortium had active participation in CCAM-related events, as well as in internal events with the project’s Satellites. Secondly, through T5.4 and T5.6 we have initiated the exploration and definition of future perspectives for the projects’ key results through market, assets, and user analysis.

WP6
In this first reporting period, we have focused on maintaining efficiency and quality in deliverables. By delegating the coordination of administrative tasks to the Management Support Team, and technical activities to the Scientific and Technical Coordinator, we have provided personalised support to the consortium. Moreover, the MST worked on developing and submitting two amendments, one interim financial and activities report, and finally, the first reporting period reports. From ethics management, we have assured that all stakeholder activities have complied with data protection protocols.
Move2CCAM will contribute to the state of the art through two outcomes. 1) System-wide impact assessment: MOVE2CCAM aims to build on existing System Dynamics (SD) studies and frameworks for transportation system assessment and address existing gaps by developing a new SD-based CCAM Impact Assessment Tool (the IAMT). The IAMT primarily aims to satisfy the emerging need to analyse, capture and eventually quantify the complex evolutionary dynamics between and across mobility, societal, economic, and environmental aspects, in the context of emerging transportation systems where traditional mobility types compete or collaborate with new disruptive CCAM interventions. 2) Participatory methods based on co-creation and systems & design thinking approaches: new co-creation systems wide paradigm pinpoints the importance of collaboration of different stakeholders to boost innovative solutions. However, researchers and practitioners face some challenges of how to understand different co-creation systems thinking approaches and transferability to other contexts, social and cultural environments. There is a lack of studies to detail how co-creation instruments operate under different socio-cultural conditions & under multi-systems and systems wide participation. MOVE2CCAM will develop a framework for co-creation multisystems engagement activities, and apply and test it through the Satellites in the context of CCAM. Several cocreative and systems thinking methods will be updated and new methods such as scenario exploration will be included. This framework will be applicable at any context.
