Tokyo Metropolitan Government introduces “E-Ride Tokyo” electric bikes

ANI / Feb 13, 2022, 07.30 AM IST

Tokyo Metropolitan Government is holding a demonstration experiment of “E-Ride Tokyo” with an aim to popularize electric bikes. EV bikes are electronic bikes that are very quiet and do not emit fume. Users can change the battery for free. Tokyo Metropolitan Government is promoting a zero-emission project. It aims to decrease CO2 emissions to zero by 2050. To realize it, EV bikes play an important role. EV bike users use a special application on their phones to find a battery replacement box. The map shows the battery replacement boxes. It also has navigation functions. The rider reads the QR code on the replacement box, opens the door, replaces it with a newly charged battery, and stores the discharged battery in a box to recharge it. E-bike Tokyo demonstration experiments include convenience stores and gas station companies. Convenience stores are located in downtown and residential areas so they find it easy to replace batteries. After successfully organizing the Olympic Games, Tokyo is seen as the most progressed city in the world. The city’s response to zero-emission is appreciated by many countries and leaders around the world.
