Abstract: The main goal of this thesis is to check if a shuttle system using battery-electric buses and a LoRaWAN network can reduce the negative social impact of the implementation of the low-emission zone in Stockholm, Sweden. To get the needed conclusions, first, in-depth research is done on IoT technologies and LoRaWAN with special focus on their use in Intelligent Traffic Systems. After, the energy consumption and charge strategies and interfaces of the battery-electric buses are studied. Finally, the particularities of the traffic in Stockholm are identified, as well as the particularities of the low-emission zone implemented in the capital of Sweden. After, a case study is proposed based on the Stockholm Region. A specific shuttle network is implemented for the proposed case study by using 9 “shuttling zones” (formed by parking for cars and buses and a bus station provided with a charging station for the buses) in which citizens can park their combustion-powered car and board one of the battery-electric buses to reach the city centre. A LoRaWAN network supports the shuttle system and allows future implementations of automatic traffic management systems. The shuttle system is proved to be profitable even if the investment is big. Besides, a positive impact would be noticeable in the traffic congestion and the health of the exposed citizens living in the city centre. Nevertheless, negative environmental impact would come along with the shuttle system mainly due to the construction of big “shuttling zones”.
