The project is a system demonstrator within FFI and focuses on testing the potential of HCT vehicles in urban traffic, both with conventional combustion engines and BEV trucks, in order to improve energy and transport efficiency and contribute to a more sustainable urban environment with fewer heav…

HITS 3 addresses the challenges of urban logistics systems from a systemic perspective and aims to accelerate the transition toward more efficient and sustainable urban freight transport.

Climate change increases the risk of flooding, which demands collaboration between property owners, municipalities, and other stakeholders. Through a systems and futures analysis, the project develops business models, financing, and legal frameworks for joint actions – with the goal of creating res…

Together with Umeå Municipality, RISE has developes and tested new ways of working holistically with system innovation to increase the city's ability to adapt. The project will enable new ways of collaborating and working more jointly with the climate challenge, across the city's administrations an…

One of the central factors in promoting the use of micromobility is offering properly designed physical and digital infrastructures that actively support users and allow positive use experiences. 

The project aims to leverage big data analysis to identify the correlations between shared micromobility, transit, and other modes of transport in various urban contexts. By combining the results with user behavior models, the project will develop planning and optimization methods for multimodal mo…

The Sweden-Brazil Innovation Initiative (SBII) 2025+ accelerates collaboration in Life Science/Digital Health, Sustainable Cities, Sustainable Mining, and Bioeconomy by connecting stakeholders, identifying needs, and transforming ideas into solutions that address global societal challenges.

The project creates conditions for implementing efficient and sustainable climate adaptation of the built urban environment. The focus is on reducing vulnerability in case of cloudburst and heat waves with measures that also create other social, economic and environmental benefits.

The project is a feasibility study on how cities can plan, and build, to meet future needs regarding deliveries to homes and businesses. This includes issues regarding the creation of a nice urban environment, while securing people's needs for deliveries and waste management.

Digitalization of critical infrastructures is an important step for increased security, safety, effectiveness and availability. CRITISEC aimed to develop novel security products, services and standards for edge networks in critical infrastructures. Its goal was allowing critical infrastructure prov…

Urban planning and construction have great potential to contribute to sustainable development, but also to prevent it. New ways to measure and value investments, which provide a more comprehensive picture of the values that are created, are needed to lead the way to sustainable development.

SEBRA is a collaborative project between RISE, Aptiv and Liri that develops concept and technology solutions for a radar-based safety system for bicyclists.
