Autolib’ is an electric-car-sharing program established by the city of Paris and 48 surrounding municipalities to relieve traffic congestion, reduce noise and air pollution, and provide people with more-flexible transit options. Implemented by logistics
company IER, the intelligent system based on Windows Embedded provides connectivity between the in-car system, registration and rental kiosks, charging stations, and a central management system. By 2023, the solution is expected to replace more than 25,000
privately owned cars, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 75 million metric tons. With Autolib’, former car owners have also cut their transportation costs by 90 percent annually. Autolib’ subscribers enjoy an enhanced driving experience with GPS navigation,
free parking, and personalized settings. The flexible solution also simplifies implementation and minimizes deployment risk. |
