Shift2Zero: Bologna leading the way in urban logistics with zero emissions

Shift2Zero has officially launched, an initiative funded by the Horizon Europe program aimed at revolutionizing urban logistics through the development of mission-specific, zero-emission electric light commercial vehicles (e-LCVs).

The project involves four pilot tests and one major pilot across various European cities to validate new sustainable transport solutions. Bologna plays a key role due to the collaboration between the Municipality, ITL (Institute for Transport and Logistics) and Gruber Logistics. The city will serve as a testing ground for an innovative logistics model based on transshipment hubs located at the edges of the urban center, facilitating the transfer of goods from electric heavy-duty vehicles (e-HDVs) to electric vans optimized for last-mile delivery. The test will use refrigerated e-LCVs for the delivery of food products, wine and e-commerce goods, focusing on modular solutions to optimize loading and unloading.

With Shift2Zero, Bologna confirms its position among the most committed European cities in the transition to zero-emission freight transport, experimenting with cutting-edge technologies and operational models.

Through Shift2Zero, Bologna reinforces its commitment to the transition toward zero-emission freight transport, building on the experience of the URBANE project and testing innovative technologies and operational models.
