Electromobility
Being on the road in an electric car is to become much easier and more natural in Jena in the coming years.
However, many companies, the Stadtwerke Jena Group, the city itself and also some private individuals have already gained experience in recent years. As operators of electrically powered vehicle fleets, as partners in the "Smart City Logistics" project or simply as users of electric vehicles.
Some important projects such as "Immergrün" (jenawohnen GmbH, Stadtwerke Jena Group) have been launched.
Dienstlich elektrisch unterwegs
Since August 2016, two purely electrically powered company vehicles have been available to the employees of the city of Jena at the location Am Anger 26. Many journeys in the city area are now carried out free of exhaust fumes.
With a stated range of 240 km, business trips to Erfurt or neighbouring municipalities are also possible without stress. The vehicles are charged at a charging station with 22 kW power per charging point. This means that it only takes 1.5 hours until the full capacity is available again.
E-Carsharing in Jena
The inauguration of the e-car sharing location in Jena (Am Anger 26) took place on 11.01.2019 by Thuringia's Environment Minister Anja Siegesmund.
The ministry provided funding, and the Jena public utility company and the carsharing company teilAuto also invested. The city of Jena provided the land. A public charging station with 2 charging points was also built.
Öffentliche Ladesäulen im Stadtgebiet
Electricity can currently be recharged at 15 public charging stations (35 charging points) in Jena [as of January 2019].
The charging stations of the Stadtwerke Jena Group belong to the ladenetz.de network. There you can also find information about the locations. The charging stations in Jena have one special feature: Here, they exclusively refuel with green electricity. Currently, the green electricity used to charge the electric vehicles is charged at a flat rate per charging process.
Another service offered by Stadtwerke Energie Jena-Pößneck GmbH is the installation of a charging station for lease or purchase for home use. The services are described in the flyer "Energy & Mobility The charging station for home".
E-Scooter
Seit 11.05.2021 sind in Jena E-Scooter unterwegs.
Es gibt viele unterschiedliche Meinungen zum Angebot, die E-Scooter als Alternative zum Pkw oder als Ergänzung zum ÖPNV zu nutzen.
Diese Fahrzeuge, ob sie nun E-Scooter, E-Roller oder E-Tretroller genannt werden, fallen unter Elektrokleinstfahrzeuge-Verordnung. Dort ist die Teilnahme am Straßenverkehr geregelt. Zudem gilt die Straßenverkehrsordnung.
Das Befahren von Gehwegen oder Fußgängerzonen mit "Radfahrer frei" ist für E-Scooter grundsätzlich verboten.
Die E-Scooter dürfen nur auf der Straße und auf Radwegen und gemeinsamen oder getrennten Rad-/Gehwegen, die auch so ausgeschildert sind, fahren.
In Jena werden sie zur Zeit von einer privatwirtschaftlich betriebenen Verleihfirma bereitgestellt. Die Buchung kann nur über die entsprechende APP erfolgen.
