New Delhi: Amid a rush by some countries to field electric cars and obtain gas and diesel cars off the road as soon as possible, not enough consideration is given to only how environmentally costly it will be to supply EV batteries for an all-electric future. Even now the batteries of electric vehicles which are charged by electricity have some carbon footprint. According to the Researchers, battery production for electric vehicles ultimately produces more carbon dioxide up to 74 percent more than an efficient conventional car if those batteries are produced in a factory powered by fossil fuels.

To reduce the emission of carbon footprint in the atmosphere and provide a green & Clean way of mobility, India’s leading EV mobility solution provider, eBikeGo tied up with SKS CleanTech to convert their complete fleet with Solar Energy charged batteries and become the first carbon neutral mobility company. Under this, batteries of all the vehicles of eBikeGo will be charged with solar energy to avoid any carbon emission.

To date, all the vehicles have been charged in houses and offices that are the reason these batteries have some carbon footprint. A normal vehicle emits 1 kg of carbon with every unit. eBikeGo always wanted to go with clean energy, that’s why they have installed solar panels where batteries will be charged with solar energy and vehicles will come and swap the batteries. These Solar Panels will be installed in buildings and the batteries which will be used in their EV will be 100% Solar powered.

“We at eBikeGo are very happy and delighted to work out something which is environmentally friendly and to convert our fleet with zero carbon emission. While dealing with this unprecedented pandemic, we learned that the more we become eco-friendly by planting trees around us and get more conscious towards the environment to become carbon negative, we can save our mother earth for our next generation. We aim to work towards green and clean air this year and that’s why plan to install this facility in January 2021” said Dr. Irfan Khan, Founder and CEO of eBikeGo.

Solar panels installed in Factories use DC, eBikeGo will regulate voltage current to divert and charge the batteries. Installation of Solar panels has started from Mumbai on a Pilot basis. Later will be installed in all tier 1 and tier 2 cities in the coming months. From start to end, all high-speed vehicles use 2Kw batteries and every battery requires 2 units of power to charge that emits approximately 2kg per battery per day. By using solar energy to charge their batteries, eBikeGo has become the first company with zero or pure carbon emissions. Also, solar power will charge the batteries 30% faster than the regular electricity due to using direct current and a 100 sq.ft. Area is required to install a 1kw solar panel that means it is easily accessible.

“We are glad to join forces with eBikeGo to give versatility arrangements without hurting the climate. Our slogan is industry nature for a greener future, on the off chance that we need that our group of people yet to come will take in clean air, at that point we as a whole need to run after this from today. Our thought process is to lessen the outflow of carbon impression in the climate regardless of what the business is” said Sunder Iyer, Founder & CEO, SKS CleanTech.

eBikeGo to launch first of its kind EV service training program

Dec 23, 2020 by Neel Achary 0 Comments #Dr. Irfan Khan, #Founder and CEO of eBikeGo

According to a recent report by Avendus Capital, which is a speculation banking arm of monetary administrations supplier expressed that the Indian electric vehicle (EV) market is probably going to be a Rs. 50,000-crore opportunity by 2025, with two-and three-wheelers expected to drive higher jolt of the vehicles in the medium term in the wake of COVID-19. In the Indian electric vehicle environment market broke down by BIS Research, the EV market is foreseen to develop at a hearty CAGR of 43.13% during the estimated time frame from 2019 to 2030.

As we are continually moving towards EV reception in India, yet at the same time, there is an absence of charging stations, Swapping Stations and administration stations. There is a legitimate structure of specialist co-ops or mechanics when we talk about any petroleum or diesel vehicles yet there is an absence of professionals or mechanics for EV. In the coming year, 30-50% of Indian vehicles will be electric.

To fill this gap and provide continued employment to the mechanics of petrol two-wheelers, eBikeGo will conduct special EV service training programs and transform them to ‘EV Specialists’ across 5 major cities i.e. Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai. The duration of this training drive will be 30 to 45 days. During this EV service training program, the company will provide training manuals, 14 hours video tutorial (one tutorial will be of 30-45 minutes) wherein the mechanics will learn basics about EV, its issues and how to repair them; what kind of toolbox is required to repair EV and the skill set all are included in it. Theoretical training will be provided on an online app of eBikeGo and the practical training will be offline.

eBikeGo will provide specialised training with 3 distinctive variants of vehicles on a pilot basis to test, fix and assemble them. On successful completion of the program, each mechanic will be given eBikeGo approved station board and a certificate. Not just that, eBikeGo will likewise take its vehicles for adjusting or fixing problems with these mechanics which will help in creating more employment and business. This training drive will start from the first week of January 2021.

“We at eBikeGo are extremely pleased to announce the first-ever EV service training program to enable the mechanics of petrol vehicles to become future-ready as ‘EV Specialists’. This initiative helps the mechanics to secure job opportunities in the new environment that is rapidly moving to EV and also help to boost the EV ecosystem in India. With this training drive, eBikeGo will not only empower the mechanics but also enables them to be Atma Nirbhar (self-sufficient) which is the vision of our Prime Minister” said Dr. Irfan Khan, Founder and CEO of eBikeGo.
