The paper presents a new proposal for the design of a sustainable urban mobility system. Starting from an overview on the worldwide existing solutions and on the future trend, an innovative idea regarding the integration of two urban mobility systems is proposed: a metro transit system in underground and an electric and hybrid vehicles transport system on surface. The integration is aimed at the reduction of energy consumptions and environmental impact and at the optimization of the service thanks to the maximization of the transport bid in time. Moreover the proposed solution guarantees the minimum economic impact as a result of the optimization of the logistic and technological application of the existing electric power plant. The main results about the preliminary energy analysis, that is the basis of the project, are reported.

Abstract
The paper presents a new proposal for the design of a sustainable urban mobility system. Starting from an overview on the worldwide existing solutions and on the future trend, an innovative idea regarding the integration of two urban mobility systems is proposed: a metro transit system in underground and an electric and hybrid vehicles transport system on surface. The integration is aimed at the reduction of energy consumptions and environmental impact and at the optimization of the service thanks to the maximization of the transport bid in time. Moreover the proposed solution guarantees the minimum economic impact as a result of the optimization of the logistic and technological application of the existing electric power plant. The main results about the preliminary energy analysis, that is the basis of the project, are reported.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
