Some ExamplescycleUshare—the USA’s first Electric bike sharing
system
• E-bikes eliminate a few of the barriers to bicycling
• E-bikes can be shared, because their batteries can be easily removed
• E-bikes can introduce riders to EV technology• Research project first, then business planning
and commercialization

Electric Bike Sharing at UTProject Goals1.Research• Technical Feasibility• Can we do it, how?
• Economic Feasibility• How much does it cost, who’s paying
• Transportation Behavior• How do people use it, what benefits does it
provide?2.Education• Make EV’s accessible…tangible “green”
transport3.Service• Help students/faculty/staff get around

Can sharing help LEVsLEVs are very utilitarian for most trips
1.Most don’t own an LEV
2.Those that do don’t have them on-hand
3.LEVs have high capital and low marginal cost
Large barrier to purchase
4.Sharing could be a way to introduce more LEVs
into transport system
