EV bike battery replacement at Seven. Demonstration of battery share by Tokyo

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government started a demonstration experiment in Itabashi Ward on December 14th with the aim of verifying the environment construction when general and corporate users use EV bikes. A departure ceremony was held. We will conduct a demonstration project "e-Ride Tokyo" in which EV bikes are rented out to general monitors and company monitors, and the charged batteries of EV bikes are exchanged at exchange spots set up in ward facilities, Seven-Eleven, etc., and shared. .

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government aims to make 100% non-gasoline motorcycles by 2035 in order to realize "Zero Emission Tokyo", an environmentally advanced city that does not emit CO2. The battery sharing demonstration project is one such initiative, and will be the first of its kind in Tokyo. Ends March 13, 2022.

EV bikes have merits in terms of environmental friendliness and quietness, but on the other hand, there are also problems such as short cruising range and long charging time. The demonstration experiment aims to solve these problems.

The EV bikes used are Yamaha "E-Vino" for general monitors and Honda "GYRO CANOPY e:" for corporate monitors. 1 Charging mileage is 29km for E-Vino and 77km for GYRO CANOPY e: (30km/h level running test value).

Participating monitors are 30 for individuals and 10 for businesses. In contrast, there were 478 applicants for the monitor. Demae-can, Konica Minolta Japan, Domino's Pizza Japan, Top Y Japan, and five other companies participate as corporate monitors.

There are 3 battery exchange spots in Itabashi Ward, 9 in Seven-Eleven, and 3 in ENEOS.

In addition, the logo of this business has obtained the cooperation of TV Tokyo "Can you charge Tetsuro Degawa?"

Use the smartphone app to check the battery replacement spot location and charging status. Once you decide where to go, the route is displayed and you go to the spot. A battery box is installed in the spot, and a QR code is attached to the door. Read this and tap the displayed "Replace battery" to confirm the lock number of the box and unlock the box. Put the used battery in the same box and charge it.
