During this project, Finnish Environment Institute will assess the environmental impacts of the new process technology as well as the wider system-level impacts of micro-mobility in cities. The project will also look into the regulation of micro-mobility, its recycling and end-of-life wastes. Our aim is to propose policy recommendations for the management of wastes and materials recovery from EOL micro-mobility devices (e-scooters and e-bikes). In addition, our goal is to quantify the existing micro-mobility fleets in Finland and to look into their potential future development and critical material needs.
