Technical requirements: The transport sector is in process of changing the use of liquid fossil fuel, to use of more sustainable energy carriers. The most relevant technology is electricity, either directly in the form of battery electric vehicles or as hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
This will generate new requirements related to the infrastructure for power supply. The transport departments and Avinor therefore wish to compile the requirement for power supply for the various types of transportation, including larger development projects for the years 2030 and 2050. In order to make sure that the objectives given in the National Transport Plan (NTP) are met, it is important that the supply of power is available at the right time and place.
The energy model will be a vital part of this work. The contracting authority therefore wants to develop the energy model, to estimate the current and future requirements for power supply. The model must be able to calculate the energy consumption for the various means of transport for a selection of light and heavy vehicles.

The model must be able to calculate the energy consumption for the various means of transport for a selection of light and heavy vehicles. The contracting authority must also be able to conduct sensitivity analyses with variable composition of vehicles, without requiring calculations with the transport models.
The energy map is intended to form a basis for a dialogue with the Norwegian water resources and energy directorate (NVE), and strengthen the grounds for decisions for politicians and network companies. A sub-objective is to ensure power for development projects that can be electrified, and for any new measures involving the transport sector.
The target group for the map is the transport departments/the National Transport Plan (NTP) and the Norwegian water resources and energy directorate (NVE)/the power supply industry. The data basis in the project must be open and thus available for all users. Also for i.a. enable industry development and public planning.
This is a research, development and compilation assignment for the energy models for the fields of the transport departments and Avinor. SINTEF has previously researched and developed some of the models. The further research, development and compilation will not be carried out unless it is initiated by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration or one of the other transport departments. The assignment is paid by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration.

A sub-objective is to ensure power for development projects that can be electrified, and for any new measures involving the transport sector. The result of the assignment will therefore be used by other participants than the Norwegian Public Roads Administration.
The contract shall be based on payment in accodance with executed work, per hour. The stated contract values are listed as an upper limit for the assignment.
