Micro-mobility Charging Infrastructure; a Source of Electricity Used to Charge Micro-Mobility Vehicles

 

Micro-mobility Charging Infrastructure

The micro-mobility charging infrastructure refers to a charging station used to charge micro-mobiles, such as e-bikes, electric skateboards, electric scooters, and bicycles (shared, electric, pedal-assisted, etc.). These charging stations can be deployed in commercial sites or residential sites. Several micro-mobility vehicles (depending on the model) can be charged at the same time at the micro-mobility charging station. Therefore, with the increasing number of micro-mobility vehicles, the demand for micro-mobility charging infrastructure is also increasing.

Asia Pacific (APAC) is one of the leading pioneer in the micromobility, with China being the first country to implement a dock-less bike-sharing platform in 2015. China, including Beijing, Guangzhou, Kunming, Wenzhou, and Shanghai, also set up public bike-sharing programs after the Hangzhou debut. In addition, there has been an increase in the number of micro-mobiles in APAC, as the region is home to some of the most urbanized and congested population centers in the world. In January 2020, Bounce, an Indian Startup, raised US$ 105 million to expand within the nation and build its own electric vehicles.

Currently, Bounce operates more than 20,000 electric and gasoline dock-less bikes and motor scooters in India. This in turn is expected to increase the demand for micro-mobility charging infrastructure in this region. Micromobility helps to fill the first- and last-mile transportation gaps, as well as help increase transportation equity, giving more residents equal access to transportation options. The term Micromobility refers to short-distance transport, operating at speeds typically below 25 km/h. It is shorthand for the growing crop of bike- and scooter-sharing companies that are poised to remake the urban landscape.

People worldwide are expected to adopt the micro-mobility mode of transportation to curb environmental pollution. This mode of transportation has excellent energy conversion rates in comparison to fossil fuel vehicles. This in turn is also expected to increase the number of micro-mobility charging infrastructure. Charging station can use two charging methods such as wired and wireless to charge micro-mobility vehicles such as e-bikes, e-scooters, bicycles, etc.
