Dallas, TX -- May 8, 2018
-- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Alternet Systems, Inc. (USOTC:
ALYI) today previewed its phase 2 plans for the company’s
recently launched Electric Vehicle (EV)
business called ReVolt
Electric Motorbikes utilizing the
company's portfolio of
patented lithium battery technologies developed by
Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. (APD) and tested by Nissan Motor Company,
Ltd. The company has a prototype electric motorcycle
underdevelopment at this time targeted for the U.S. market.
The first motorcycle, currently in pilot production, is based on
BMW's classic, WWII era, R71 motorcycle with sidecar. ReVolt is
planning to produce a limited edition of the retro-classic electric
motorcycle later this year in time for the holiday season.
Alternet and ReVolt’s phase 2 plan is to develop a utility, daily
driver electric motorcycle for the developing and transitional
markets with plans to introduce the electric motorcycle next year
in Africa. Atlernet and ReVolt’s phase 2 plan supports the
United Nations Environmental Program guidance for 2
and 3 wheel vehicles in developing and transitional
markets.
From The UN Environment On
Electric 2 & 3 Wheelers:
Transport accounts for about 25% of energy-related CO2 emissions,
and is a major source of air pollution. It impacts public health
and climate change. In many Asian and African
countries, 2&3 wheelers are a primary transport
mode with rapid growth of motorcycle fleets projected in the
near future; they also serve as a critical link to urban transport
systems.
However, many of these internal combustion engine 2&3 wheelers
are old and inefficient, thus emitting substantial amounts of
particulate matter (PM) and black carbon (BC) emissions. Two-stroke
scooters, for example, produce more particle emissions than a
passenger car.
Experts agree that 2&3 wheelers are the first priority in
moving to electric mobility as they provide net carbon benefits
regardless of “upstream” electricity-carbon mix.
Given the rapid growth of 2&3 wheeler fleets in developing and
transitional countries, UN Environment is supporting six countries
to develop national programmes for the introduction of electric
2&3 wheelers: Kenya, Uganda and Ethiopia in East
Africa, and the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam in
Southeast Asia. This project will be the first global effort to
introduce electric 2&3 wheelers in non-OECD countries, and
will start the transition from internal combustion engine
2&3 wheelers to electric and non-motorized 2&3
wheelers.
The project will see to a transformative integration of electric
2&3 wheelers into existing urban transport modes via a
comprehensive policy framework. It will replicate the lessons
learned in other countries throughout the sub-regions, as a first
step towards a general shift to electric mobility.
A global transition stands to reduce road transport emissions by at
least 1.5 Gt of CO2. This intervention directly impacts the
population of the countries by reducing air pollution, improving
national energy security, and creating green jobs.
