Second lives for electric vehicle batteries
Handling retired EV batteries sustainably will become a major challenge. This project, we research current and emerging practices for the next life of batteries.
Micromobility and freight: Exploring opportunities in WA
This project will consider the applicability and potential for micromobility to assist with the last mile freight task in the Perth CBD and other urban areas in WA.
ESP: Preparing for the electrification of transportation
The key aim of this is to develop the foundation to inform post-2030 electricity systems of the impact and needs brought on by the electrification of transport.
OneDock: Supercharging e-micromobility
This project will enable microFleet to accelerate development of the OneDock universal e-micromobility charging station platform.
Zero emissions heavy vehicles: Analysis, planning and policy
Recommendations/policy directions for transition to LZEV trucks, & analysis of total cost of ownership & geospatial roadmap analysis for refueller / EV chargers.
Use of biochar waste in carbon capture and reduced emissions
This project will explore the potential of biochar for use as a climate-responsible, high-performance, pavement material.
Consumer adoption of technologies for Net Zero emissions
This project will explore how potential consumer challenges to achieving Net Zero emissions might be overcome, in particular looking at three key technologies.
Accounting for carbon in planning residential neighbourhoods
This research will provide an evidence base and tools for how new residential neighbourhoods can best contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Electric school buses for Western Australia: Feasibility study
Assessment of battery-electric buses for regional school bus services in WA – where, electricity network capacity, and technical support required.
Accessibility guidelines for LZEV charging infrastructure
This project will develop accessibility guidelines for Low and Zero Emission Vehicle charging infrastructure, collaborating with industry and people with disability.
Emissions and economic modelling of NSW road and rail freight
This research will model the impact of various policy levers on carbon emissions from road and rail freight, and to identify the economic benefits.
Clean fuels, lower emissions in red meat processing transport
This project will develop, test, and deliver a data-integrated visualisation and analytics platform for heavy transport emissions, efficiency, and sustainability.
Last mile van delivery planning and optimisation
Development of systems of classifying street networks & local terrain & delivery density, where a mix of delivery modes may improve on mono-modal delivery.
Scenario developments for forecasting urban freight shifts
This project will develop a framework/tool for forecasting future scenarios of urban freight in informing planning and regulation (transport and land use).
Evaluation of the Wagga Wagga Active Travel Plan
The research project will provide evidence of the short to medium-term changes and benefits of the Active Travel Plan, as well as enable longer-term benefits.
Promoting sustainable university travel choices
This project will provide robust recommendations for suggested initiatives to influence travel behaviours and demand in a university environment.
