The role and importance of e-bikes in CITY logistics, with special emphasis on sustainable transport

Urban environments depend on the efficiency of logistics activities, which due to several negative impacts are not desirable in cities. Researchers are paying increasing attention to the development of environmentally friendly logistics systems, by applying electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, cargo trams, and other vehicles to alternative propulsion systems. To achieve environmentally-friendly logistics systems, researchers have defined several "scenarios", to achieve sustainable transport, with the solutions presented in this paper. Also, the paper analyzes the role and importance of the use of e-bikes in CITY logistics, regarding sustainable transport.
