Abstract
The use of electric vehicles in the commercial sector is ecologically and economically promising. To promote the use, however, good knowledge of the (potential) user groups and their needs is required. This paper bases on a survey in Aachen among decision-makers of care services and taxi companies, that are considering the integration of electric vehicles. The requirements for electric vehicles and the construction of charging infrastructure as well as perceived risks and potentials were analysed. The results are transferred to stakeholder profiles. In addition, information and participation requirements were surveyed. The study shows strong sectoral differences. Both groups need sector-specific information offers. The willingness to change is higher in care services. Their vehicles should be charged on the premises after shifts (usually overnight). Fast charging is not necessary. Practice reports and an overview of subsidy opportunities are required. The taxi operators see more risks than potentials. They need fast-charging vehicles (in a two-shift system). The provision of fast-charging infrastructure at taxi stands is relevant for decision-making. Consultation is needed to avoid conflicts concerning the positioning at taxi stands, the times of use and the procurement of charging electric vehicles.

Summary
Deutschland verfolgt das ambitionierte Ziel, durch die Energiewende zur Erreichung von Klimazielen beizutragen. Teil der Energiewende ist die Verkehrswende, das heißt die Umstellung des Verkehrssektors von fossilen Kraftstoffen auf Strom und Kraftstoffe aus erneuerbaren Energien. Der Handlungsbedarf des Umdenkens ist angesichts verkehrsbedingt hoher Luftverschmutzung und CO2-Emmissionen hoch, die Bereitschaft, auf Elektrofahrzeuge (im Folgenden E-Fahrzeuge) umzusteigen, jedoch bislang gering. Der Fokus der Studie richtet sich auf drei Fragen: – Welche organisationalen Merkmale der Zielgruppen beeinflussen die Nutzung von E-Fahrzeugen und Ladeinfrastruktur? – Welche Anforderungen stellen die Zielgruppen an E-Fahrzeuge, Ladeinfrastruktur und Informationsangebote für die Umstellung auf E-Mobilität?. In Kapitel 4 werden die Stichproben bezogen auf Firmenmerkmale charakterisiert (Kapitel 4.1) sowie branchenbezogene Einstellungen zu E-Mobilität (Kapitel 4.2), Anforderungen an E-Fahrzeuge und Ladeinfrastruktur für die Nutzung in Flotten (Kapitel 4.3) sowie Informations- und Partizipationsbedarfe (Kapitel 4.4) beschrieben. Die Ergebnisse werden abschließend (Kapitel 5) kritisch diskutiert und es wird Handlungsbedarf für Forschung und Praxis abgeleitet
