• The eTukTuk project was unveiled at the World Economic Forum in Davos and will begin operations in Sri Lanka with the support of the local government.
• The project is intended to address the lack of charging infrastructure and the high cost of e-vehicles in developing countries.
• The network of charging stations and e-vehicles is intended to support the shift away from fossil fuels, addressing global issues such as air pollution, CO2-related health problems, and financial inequality.
The World Economic Forum in Davos recently saw the unveiling of the world’s first automotive project on the Cardano blockchain – the eTukTuk project. The project is set to begin operations in Sri Lanka and is being supported by the local government. The goal of the project is to address the lack of charging infrastructure and the high cost of e-vehicles in developing countries.
eTukTuk aims to create a peer-to-peer (P2P) economy using the Cardano blockchain, which will be used to build a dynamic, multi-faceted revenue model. This will, in turn, be used to incentivize the expansion of the highly scalable eTukTuk network of charging stations and eTukTuk-owned e-vehicles. This model is intended to support the shift away from fossil fuels in regions where e-vehicle infrastructure is lacking, while also addressing global issues such as air pollution, CO2-related health problems, and financial inequality.
Tuk-tuks are a symbol of affordable mobility in developing Asian and African countries, but they are also responsible for greater CO2 emissions than cars, contributing significantly to global carbon emissions. The eTukTuk project is looking to tackle this issue by offering a more sustainable method of transport. The project is also looking to offer a more affordable option to those in developing countries who may not be able to afford traditional methods of transportation.
The eTukTuk project is being spearheaded by the Cardano Foundation, with CEO Frederick Gregaard and Global Head of Marketing David Taylor in attendance at the World Economic Forum. The project is also being supported by the Sri Lankan government and other investors, who are looking to move away from traditional methods of transportation and towards a more sustainable approach.
The eTukTuk project is a major step towards greener and more affordable transportation. Not only does it look to address global issues such as air pollution, CO2-related health problems, and financial inequality, but it also offers a more sustainable and cost-effective method of transportation for those in developing countries. The project is set to begin operations in Sri Lanka and is being supported by the local government, as well as other investors. The Cardano Foundation is leading the way in this project, and with the support of the local government, they are hoping to bring about a major change in the way we view transportation.
