The Netherlands' Model

Let's pledge to follow 'The Netherlands' Model'  (Bicycle and Public Transport Model) and discard the 'US Model' (Private Car 'American Dream' Model). 

The images on the left show the Google Maps and 'Street View' of two parallel roads namely 21 Beemdstraat and 12 Mahatma Gandhilaan, in Eindhoven, Nederland. While the maps show that the two roads have a separate bicycle trail, the street view shows cyclists using the bicycle trail and in numbers larger than automobiles.

Google Maps offers a 'biking' layer that offers four different categories of bicycling routes depending on the degree of bicycle friendliness. Solid green lines for paved bicycle trails, solid black lines for dedicated bicycle lanes, dotted green lines for bicycle friendly roads, and dashed green lines for dirt or unpaved bicycle trails.  Solid green and solid black line routes are the safest for bicycling. Environmental friendly cities and countries can be identified by visualising the density of such lines.  For comparison, we display on our 'bicycle page'  the biking layer (courtesy Google) for three different cities, Eindhoven in The Netherlands, Washington DC in the USA, and Gandhinagar in Gujarat, India. Click here to check which one is the most environmentally friendly.

On World Environment Day, Sunday, 5th June 2022, Baroda Electric Meters Limited proudly dedicated its  indigenously developed BEM® Savitre  'Solar Bicycles' and 'Solar Tricycles ' to India and to the world. Since then the assembly and roll out of the world's first  sustainable human transport vehicle has commenced in its works located at Anand, Gujarat, India. 

A brand new 26" regular or MTB bicycle from a reputed manufacturer of customer's choice retrofitted complete, with the basic configuration consisting of a 250W BLDC Hub Motor, Electronic Motor Controller, Rechargeable Li-ion Polymer 200Wh Battery,  40 W Solar Panel, BEM Savitre Solar MPPT Battery Charge Controller, Head Light, Tail Light cum Brake Light, Horn & other Fittings, and 3 operational modes (Throttle, Pedal Assist, Manual Pedal), is offered for an all inclusive (inc. GST) ex-works price of 25,200 (or USD$ 260 or EURO 240) only! The price includes cost of a brand new bicycle and has no extra or hidden costs. Due to local demand, it is currenlty available only at the Factory Store. 

Solar Bicycles and Tricycles are truly a novel and innovative concept. It is probably the only vehicle developed and commercialised so far that generates its own energy that it (the vehicle) consumes. As proud innovators and manufacturers of the solar cycles, we suggest that readers compare it with other vehicles (ICE vehicles or EVs).

BEM Savitre Solar Assist Bicycles and  Solar MPPT Controllers 

BEM® Savitre MPPT Solar Charge Controllers / Battery Chargers can be simply be attached to Solar Panels placed under the Sun to charge up rechargeable batteries at the fastest possible pace - i.e. in minimum battery charging time. These are 32 bit ARM Cortex microcontroller based chargers with true 'Maximum Power Point Tracking' (MPPT) algorithms that enable it to extract maximum power from a solar panel of a certain capacity (Beware of modules without tracking ability, or simple PWM modules, in the market, labelled as MPPT!) . The MPPT Solar Charge Controllers are particularly useful in remote areas  for applications that need battery power far away from the electric grid. Different models can be used for charging Li-Ion Batteries for wide range of applications ranging from E-bikes or E-bicycles to Rechargeable Lanterns & Torches. BEM® Savitre™ MPPT  Controllers have been designed with inbuilt protection and controlled operating modes for high reliability, quick charging and longer usage life of the rechargeable batteries.
