15 HISTORY OF TUBE TRANSPORT Global transportation concept using passenger capsules in frictionless maglev full-vacuum tubes First proposals 1910s Hyperloop Transportation Technologies KRRI Incorporated in October 2015 $20M CAD seed funding announced in November 2016 Operations expanded to Canada, Italy, and France in January 2017 Currently in industrial phase of full system development 1st startup 2000s First Designs SwissMetro Elon Musk 2nd startup Vacuum trains were first described by American rocket pioneer Robert Goddard Swiss national transportation project using vactrain technology Entrepreneur Elon Musk re-introduces the hyperloop concept through release of alpha document Hyperloop One 15

16 TRANSPOD TRANSPORTATION TransPod is electrically-powered ground transportation capable of transporting both passengers and cargo inside low-pressure tubes, reaching speeds up to 1200 km/h. VISION MISSION A world in which people, cities, and businesses are connected with affordable and sustainable ultra high-speed transportation Developing the next generation of affordable and sustainable ultra high-speed transportation for a better connected and fossil fuel-free society 16

18 TECHNOLOGY

19 HOW DOES IT WORK? Aircraft-based fuselage Pressurization and thermal management Axial Compressor to bypass air flow Aircraft-based cabin air system Linear magnetic propulsion drive Levitation System for reduced friction 19 19

20 HOW DOES IT WORK? Infrastructure 1 Steel tube infrastructure with low pressure to reduce air resistance 3 Electrically powered, linked to the grid 2 4 TransPod vehicles magnetically propelled at km/h to transport passengers and cargo Elevated and underground infrastructure to minimise footprint on the landscape 20

21 TRANSPOD LINE 21

22 HOW DOES IT WORK? 22

23 4 USE CASES FOR THE TECHNOLOGY Short distances < 100 km Long distance > 100 km PASSENGER Rapid transit or airport connection Ultra high speed regional transport High frequency, high speeds Mass transit between city centers High-speed urban cargo Ultra high speed regional cargo Parcels, containers Time-sensitive freight, perishable, high value CARGO 23

26 PRODUCTIVITY AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS

27 DEMAND FOR PASSENGER TRANSPORT Global air passenger growth (B.) World population growth (B.) Best: + 10% / year Base: + 5% / year Source: International Air Transport Association (IATA) Source: UN Population Division 1 People are increasingly looking to travel cheap and fast. However, the aviation sector is struggling to accommodate this new capacity. 2 As economies are growing, increased passenger transport will generate significant CO2 emissions and present a threat to human welfare

28 DEMAND FOR FREIGHT TRANSPORT Global e-commerce growth (B. of USD) + 95% in 5 years Global Air Cargo forecast (B. of tonnes km) Best: + 50% Base: +25% Source: Statista Source: IATA s World Cargo Symposium 1 Infrastructure is severely underprepared, and that mustering up the political will to push through infrastructure improvements is critical. 2 There is a global need for faster and greener freight transport, largely due to the growth of e-commerce worldwide

29 IMPACTS ON A CANADIAN CORRIDOR TransPod system OTTAWA 15 min. MONTRÉAL 10 min. KINGSTON 20 min. 580 km. 45 minutes. TORONTO 29 29

30 IMPACTS ON A CANADIAN CORRIDOR 400,000 Tonnes of CO2 Removed / year 300 Freight related car accidents avoided every year. 2,150,000 Hours of freight travel time savings for businesses and consumers every year. 85 Billion / year Operating revenues 30 30

31 SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACTS Sustainable mass transit Substantial time savings Decrease of accidents CO2 emissions reduction and solar power generation Speed + frequency redefining distances Safe and reliable mass transit solution Major economic stimulus Protection against weather effects Low maintenance and construction costs Virtual clustering between businesses increases productivity No disturbance due to obstacles or weather effects Patented levitation & propulsion 31 31

32 CONGESTION 32 32

33 CONGESTION Congestion Worldwide 2016 TOMTOM RANKING 1. Mexico City 2. Bangkok 3. Jakarta 4. Chongqing 5. Bucharest 6. Istanbul 7. Chengdu 8. Rio de Janeiro 9. Tainan 10. Beijing 33 33

34 PRODUCTIVITY IMPACT: PASSENGER INNOVATIONS Regular vehicles 2h of commute / day x 250 working days = 500h of productive time wasted / year Shared Driverless vehicles Time optimisation: working from your car Undertaking personal projects 30-50% vehicle productivity increase 34

35 PRODUCTIVITY IMPACT: FREIGHT INNOVATIONS Impact on people Delivery robots Faster deliveries, time savings Ease of access, focus on other tasks On demand (groceries, parcels) Driverless trucks Impact on businesses Decreased transport costs Drones Autonomous ships e.g. 75% of costs of truck transport is labour. <----> 11 hour/day limit in US Supply chain optimization 35

36 LAST MILE: A NEXT GENERATION UAVs Origin (Freight) Driverless Trucks Hub 1 Automated transit Destination (Freight) Driverless Trucks Hub km / 35 min Ultra-High-Speed connection Driverless cars Origin (Passengers) UAVs Driverless cars Automated transit Destination (Passengers) An integrated, sustainable, and efficient last mile system will be the backbone of economic growth

38 IMPACTS ON PRODUCTIVITY Passenger transport Freight transport Labour Market Access Effects Match to specialised skills Reliability of workers Transportation costs Process/Organisation effects Labour Production (Goods & Services) Supplier Market Access Effects Match to specialised supplies Reliability of deliveries Transportation costs Materials & Equipment Customer access to store/service Economies of scale Economies of specialisation Economies of timing Wholesale & Distrib. Sellers (Goods & Services) Market access Transportation costs Households Supply Chain Effects Safety/stocks Reliability, Connectivity Centralisation of dispatch Transportation costs 38 38

39 IMPACT ON DEVELOPING COUNTRIES Example Needs for developing countries: China built an electrified railway in Ethiopia to increase its presence in Africa 3 days travel 12 hours travel (Ethiopia capital to Djibouti) This investment will benefit the local economy by increasing productive time of citizens. Future-proof planning for long-term sustainability Upcoming transport technologies Sustainable energy sources Build regulatory framework + smart policy How to finance such projects: Liberalise and develop local financial markets to facilitate FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) Promote the business case for private investment in infrastructure (long term profitability) 39
