ComfficientShare 2.0

Convenient and efficient vehicle sharing on private property

Innovative car sharing models for a sustainable city

Over 750,000 cars are registered in Munich, many of which are rarely used. The project ComfficientShare 2.0 is investigating how various car-sharing models at residential locations can offer an attractive alternative to the little-used private vehicle. Our aim is to reduce the space required by unused vehicles and at the same time promote efficient mobility solutions. We offer three types of car sharing: Community Carsharing, Station-based car sharing and Peer-to-peer car sharing.

How do we do it?

Practical testing - at six locations in Munich with over 1,000 residential units

  • Implementation on more than six existing quarters in Munich
  • Provision of a diverse fleet - from electrified micro vehicles to vans
  • Investigation of the Acceptance and behavioral change of the residents
  • Development and prototype testing of a cost-optimized load planning

We are testing mobility services in the following work packages

Preparation

Satisfaction and acceptance:
We record the usage behavior and needs of residents with regard to existing mobility services. Potential additional mobility requirements are also being researched.
Development of customized

Solutions:
We develop and procure targeted mobility solutions that meet the requirements of the various target groups and implement the necessary charging infrastructure.

Develop

Focus on car sharing on private land:
We investigate the possibilities of peer-to-peer and community car sharing, taking into account the perspectives of various stakeholders such as mobility providers, infrastructure and end customers.

Economic sustainability:
The aim is to develop a viable, economically sustainable business model that can be implemented by the end of the project.

Implementation

Community Carsharing:
We are starting with the provision and operation of sharing vehicles in various trial forms. We are also collecting relevant data to evaluate usage and acceptance.

Peer-to-peer car sharing:
We integrate peer-to-peer car sharing as part of the project and operate sharing vehicles in different model variants. The data collected is used for scientific monitoring and analysis.

Accompanying research

Mobility data collection:
With the help of sensors in underground parking garages and a tracking app, we collect mobility data and carry out comprehensive analyses.

Acceptance and price research:
We investigate the willingness to pay, the acceptance of car sharing offers and optimal charging strategies.

Generalizable findings:
The data obtained enables us to develop universal findings that can be transferred to the conceptual design of car sharing on private land.

Utilization of results and scaling

Utilization of the project results:
At the end of the project, we will publish our findings and scale up the tested models for wider application. The aim is to introduce sustainable, efficient mobility solutions on a large scale.

Who does it?

A motivated consortium of experienced partners from science, business, the public sector and society is working together in an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary manner on the pressing issues of our time.
