AENEAS
- Attaining Energy-Efficient
Mobility in an Ageing Society
|
|
| |
AENEAS is a European project in the framework
of the Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) programme. Its acronym stands
for "Attaining Energy-Efficient Mobility in an Ageing Society."
The project's objective is nothing less than to become the cornerstone
for international reference projects in the field of urban mobility
of older people.
As described on the page "Older People and Mobility",
Europe is facing tremendous demographic shifts. As the "car
generation" is growing old, older people (50 and above) are
increasingly using the private car instead of environmentally
sustainable modes of urban transport – with massive impacts
on energy efficiency.

Project
Goal |
| |
In AENEAS, the cities of Donostia-San Sebastián, Kraków,
Munich, Odense, Salzburg and their supporting organisations will
pursue the following aims:
- raise awareness about the challenge of energy-efficient urban
mobility in an ageing society among stakeholders in European
cities;
- enable key actors to address these issues by applying successful,
non-technological concepts;
- raise awareness on energy-efficient travel options (walking,
public transport, cycling, car sharing and public bicycles)
and promote them as alternatives to the private car;
- train older people on how to use sustainable transport according
to their needs and expectations; and
- improve the attractiveness and safety of energy-efficient
modes by small-scale, innovative interventions.

Bringing together
leading European players in the field of older people's mobility,
AENEAS will improve the attractiveness of sustainable transport
and will contribute to modal shifts towards energy-efficient modes
of transport among older people. |
