As a leading non-profit organization, the Cycling and
Health Tech Industry R&D Center is going green on Cycling,
collaborating with Taiwan partners
and looking for global cooperation opportunities.
FRANKFURT, Germany,
July 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The
Cycling and Health Tech Industry R&D Center (CHC), based in
Taichung, Taiwan, has exhibited at
Eurobike, the leading international cycling fair, which took place
from 3-7 July 2024 in Germany. The CHC has been promoting cycling
sustainability, fully supported by the Industrial Development
Administration (IDA) of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of
Taiwan, and is active in making
the cycling industry go green.
At the biggest bike and eco-mobility event, the CHC not only
promotes its service capability and products but also actively
communicates with partners who are heading in the same direction
towards sustainability, and expects to build a strong relationship
and work hard on making bicycles a green product.
Environmental protection is a serious and must-do issue for
countries around the world. The CHC, Taiwan's government, and its bicycle industry
have been aware of the problem and are taking action together. The
Bicycling Alliance for Sustainability (BAS) was therefore
established in 2022. With its national net-zero goals by 2050, the
BAS has set an initiative to complete the greenhouse gas inventory
within 2 years, achieving an annual 3% reduction in carbon
emissions, and reaching a 25% reduction per vehicle by 2030.
In collaboration with the CHC, BAS, and Taiwan Bicycle
Association (TBA), they have focused on promoting green
initiatives, integrating the bicycle supply chain to reduce carbon
emissions, working on green design innovations, and sustainable
manufacturing practices. Moreover, CHC provides services to help
small to medium-sized enterprises promote the transformation to
sustainable development, including net zero carbon basics courses
and related carbon reduction education and training.
Their efforts have resulted in positive outcomes on net zero
carbon emission promotion, including recycling research, product
research, manufacturing research, and so on. Additionally, the
section on greenhouse gas (GHG) measurement and carbon footprint
verification (CFV) has nearly twice as many enterprises
participating. The growing efforts reflected a 5.6% decrease in
carbon emission reduction results in 2023.
While pedaling towards sustainability, CHC has also devoted
itself to making the cycling dream of disabled people come true.
The debut of E-handcycle 2.0 in 2023, is an innovative
redevelopment for disabled people to cycle by rotating the
handlebars and using their hands to experience the riding. The new
generation of E-handcycle contains new features and IoT Tech to
make riding safer and easier to control, providing a better riding
experience.
With the green cycling goals and dreams fulfilling for disabled
people, it is encouraging to see the bicycle industry take action
on cycling sustainability and create a cycling-friendly
environment. There are increasing organizations and companies
promoting green initiatives at Eurobike, ensuring that cycling
becomes a truly green product and makes our planet greener.
