We dedicate these pages to the Electric Two Wheeler

http://bit.ly/7XwAG

From the year 2012 we dedicate this site to creating a database and gathering information on the Electric 2 wheeler (E scooters and electric bikes ) a revolution that has happened in China but left out the rest of the
emerging world but has a huge potential to grow into a global initiative to curb fossil fuel. Here is excerpt
from my recent  Economic Times Post on the electric two wheeler

During the 3^rd month of the year ‘86  China’s visionary leader Deng Xiaoping approved the ‘State High Tech Development Plan’ popularly known as the ‘863 program’ for research and development in new technology. At that time China was a poor nation and still negotiating the after effects of the transformation from Mao style communism to Deng’s economic reforms program. The seven technology fields that were initially conceptualized by the 4 Chinese engineers led by Wang Ganchang and endorsed by Deng got a major boost only 15 years later in 2001 when China had the reserves to start investing heavily in the local economy. One of the designated areas that first received an allocation of RMB 800 million was the “863 Electric-Drive Fuel Cell Vehicle Project.” The concept of the Chinese leadership was simple. As China progressed over the years it would need to empower its billions with personal transport. That would increase the risk of becoming dependant on imported fossil fuel. The ideal way to mitigate the risk would be to develop a low cost alternative energy solution.

Conference on Energy Innovations for a Sustainable World
Abstract of Paper: For ICAE 2012 Conference
Conference Topic: Energy Systems and Efficiency Improvement / Transport
Title: DISRUPTIVE GREEN TECHNOLOGIES: ELECTRIC BIKES AND
SCOOTERS COULD SOON OUTSELL FOSSIL FUEL VERSIONS
Author: Sandip Sen
THE BACKGROUND SUBJECT :
 China is producing a mammoth 24 million electric powered bicycles annually.
 China’s e bike population of 120 million is five times the number of cars on Chinese roads.
 China has also several electric scooter and bike models that have a cruising speed of around 30 mph and are used for city driving by its citizens.
 The e bike and e scooter revolution is partly due to new breakthrough development in transmission and Lithium battery technology besides several policy initiatives taken by the Governments around the world.
 China accounts for 90% of the global e bike market largely due to Government policy and incentives
 Norway, Finland, Sweden, Germany, Denmark and the US have already a steady domestic demand for electric bikes.
 German, Japanese, American and Indian manufacturers are also readying great products in this e scooter and electric bike segment.
 PURPOSE OF RESEARCH : The Paper will attempt to study Chinese and other global markets from the point of market analytics, policy analytics and technology analytics.
 PRINCIPAL RESULTS : The trends of the past years will be be tabulated for both electric powered as well as fossil fuel segments
 MAJOR CONCLUSIONS : Electric powered vehicles could outsell fossil fuel units below 100 cc in the next 5 years

Facebook, Netflix Look beyond US    


Published in ISEdb Ohio dated Nov 2

Facebook and Netflix announced this week major expansions outside the US. While Facebook has grown rapidly Netflix lost 800,000 users in the last quarter but both have similar needs to step outside the US. The principal reason has been the fast expansion of social networking outside the US not only in the rich nations of Europe and Japan but also across the emerging economies of populous Asia. Now both sites want to capture the benefits of globalization like their more successful peers Google, Microsoft, Amazon and Apple.                                                                       For more read http://isedb.com/20111102-16007.php

Is Greek Referendum to Prevent Fine Print Manipulations?    

Published in Technorati San Francisco dated Nov 3
Fine print manipulations are the order of the day in Bank agreements. Nobody knows it better than George Papandreou who was not long ago fed with one such version by the IIF led banking lobby in the July  tripartite agreement with Greece not so long ago. Reuter’s analyst Hugo Dixon had then reported that the Greek debt would actually increase by Euro 31 billion and push up debt to GDP ratio to179% if the original version was retained.                                                          For more read http://technorati.com/business/finance/article/is-greek-referendum-to-prevent-fine/

Google, KBC and Innovative Free Education                                       


Published in Economic Times New Delhi dated Nov 3

Last month internet search engine giant Google roped in publishing big daddy Pearson to launch its free internet based education called Google Open Class. The LMS or 'Learning Management System' shall be developed by Pearson, and distributed through Google 'apps for education' a document sharing service. Besides being free the 'Open Class' will be capable of spreading education through the Android operating system for mobile users. This will enhance the scalability of distant education through the internet and bring in the bottom of the pyramid segment who cannot afford high quality schools           For more read http://blogs.economictimes.indiatimes.com/Whathappensif/entry/google-kbc-and-innovative-free-education
