BUILDING TOMORROW’S MOBILITY FROM TODAY RENAULT: A RESPONSIBLE COMPANY

Short distance carpooling mainly concerns home/work travel. P As part of the inter-company travel plan (PDIE) at the P Guyancourt Technocentre, Renault suggest its employees use Klaxit for carpooling. 86% of registered users have found fellow carpoolers for their trips and hours. This PDIE enables all companies in the area to pool their supply and demand in order to offer employees alternatives to home-work travel in individual cars. Through its MOBILIZE fund, Renault supports ECOV , which P works alongside local authorities to build spontaneous, dynamic carpooling lines that are accessible to all in suburban and rural areas. Lastly, Alliance Ventures , Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Motors Corporation’s investment fund created in January 2018, has also invested in Transit, a multi-modal application (MaaS) that enables users to choose the most appropriate mobility mode for a trip, and Coord, which facilitates the analysis, sharing and collection of data on “curbs,” in order to offer partners and cities solutions to better manage the different mobility services.

The growth of the urban population comes with countless challenges: developing urban mobility while limiting pollution, providing solutions to climate change and for society’s ecological transition, optimizing water and energy management, improving the quality of life of people, contributing to social cohesion, designing, building and renovating buildings and neighborhoods. Groupe Renault contributes to collective thinking on sustainable mobility systems in cities, and particularly on mobility ecosystems. It is a partner of the LaVilleE+ led by Société Générale to support the creation of tomorrow’s towns and cities and make them human, inclusive and sustainable. LaVilleE+ is focusing on three differentiating aspects comprising impact, interaction through play and holisstic approach in with big public and private contractors currently shaping territorial development. Innovation stems from a holistic approach to city development acting systematically on the four pillars comprising it (citizenship, mobility, resources and property), thanks to the multi-skilled nature of an ecosystem of partners. Groupe Renault also sponsors a number of academic chairs that feed this thinking, such as the Urban Logistics Chair with Mines ParisTech, which since 2016 has been focused on inventing innovative and sustainable urban logistics models. Renault has also taken part in the SiMPlify project within the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). This project aims to offer a set of indicators to allow cities to measure their performance in terms of sustainable mobility, from an economic, environmental and social point of view. The SiMPlify project provides support for cities wanting to self-evaluate and then improve their transport systems to meet best practice. Thinking about mobility challenges in C. sustainable cities

Renault freely shares its expertise in this area via numerous thematic round-tables and seminars. For more information, go to: https://sharedmobility.group.renault.com/en/. Contributing to the development of smart D. cities At the forefront of electric mobility, Groupe Renault is also at the cutting edge for the development of its entire ecosystem , along with numerous partners. It notably works with public sector players to learn from and dialog with cities about their vision for the future. Through its position as leader in Europe in electric vehicles and its commitment to continue to invest in innovative technologies, Groupe Renault provides its contribution to the development of “smart cities.” It has already co-built several tangible solutions focusing on three areas: making the electric vehicle an essential element of new smart P electricity networks , as these “smart grids” enable low-cost, low-carbon electricity. The corresponding solutions build on real-time energy storage in batteries: smart recharging – which will soon be reversible – of electric vehicles, and the reuse of batteries at the end of their useful life in vehicles, for stationary purposes; encouraging the large-scale development of electric vehicles. P To make the electric vehicle more popular, Groupe Renault offers a set of smartphone applications to simplify everyday life for drivers of electric vehicles, such as “Electric Route Planner” (integrated into MyRenault) which enables drivers to prepare their long-distance trips in electric cars: the driver knows in advance when, where and for how long he/she needs to stop to recharge the vehicle’s battery. The tool proposes routes indicating the most suitable recharging points and the overall trip time, taking into account the recharging time according to the type of stations available; promoting the emergence of simple and smooth sustainable P mobility thanks to on-demand mobility solutions, taxi and chauffeur-driven car services, and electric car-sharing services. In 2018, Groupe Renault reaffirmed its intention to develop a smart electricity ecosystem in favor of the energy transition and mobility for all, establishing several public and private partnerships (PPP) . For example, with EEM, Empresa de Electricidade da Madeira, a producer, transporter and distributor of energy in the Portuguese archipelago of Madeira, it created a smart electricity system on the island of Porto Santo. An innovative program, called Smart Fossil Free Island was implemented by the regional government of Madeira to promote the energy transition of the island. Based on electric vehicles, second life batteries, smart recharging and reversible recharging, this first “smart island” in the world aims to achieve energy independence for the island and promote the production of renewable energy as well as optimize its consumption. This ecosystem model can be replicated in other islands, neighborhoods and cities. Groupe Renault, Morbihan Énergie, Cars Bleus and Enedis are working together on the FlexMob’Île project, aimed at reducing the carbon footprint and promoting the energy independence of Belle-Île-en-Mer.
