D5.2 Deliverable Title Report on ELIPTIC Twin call’s funded activities and outcomes Milestones - Version 1 Date of issue 11-06-2018 Distribution [Internal/External] External Dissemination level [Public/ Confidential] Public Abstract As part of the take-up process defined by the ELIPTIC project to facilitate wide adoption of the project results by other cities, the ELIPTIC “twinning fund” was set up, which supported the transfer of measures from ELIPTIC partner cities to “twin” cities. The twinning fund was a financing mechanism consisting of a systematic support programme of site visits at ELIPTIC partner use cases, and additionally individual support in the take- up activities of twinning partners. Overall, the ELIPTIC twinning programme was a great success. The programme effectively supported the transfer of measures from ELIPTIC partner cities to twin cities by enabling joint discussions at user fora and workshops, site visits as well as feasibility studies to assess the local possibilities for public transport electrification. The twinning programme also benefited the project as a whole, as many ELIPTIC partners were invited to site visits and workshops carried out by twin cities, which enabled mutual exchange of knowledge and experiences Keywords Transfer, twinning, ELIPTIC, twin cities, take-up process, funding programme Critical risks Lack of commitment by twinning cities, low visibility of twinning activities for ELIPTIC partners, This report is subject to a disclaimer and copyright.
