Swap-It: Decarbonising last-mile transport with modular battery swap stations

2020年3月，英国交通部（DfT）发布了其交通脱碳计划（TDP）的第一部分，其中列出了采取行动的理由和政策差距的规模。DfT的分析暗示2050年的减排轨迹是每年至少减少5%到6%的二氧化碳排放量。月光能源的使命是使最后一英里的运输可持续和高效。我们为电动摩托车和踏板车提供便携式交换电池站。我们针对电动摩托车和踏板车的电池即服务（BaaS）模式旨在消除充电时间和续航里程的担忧，这被视为电动汽车在两轮市场占据主导地位的主要障碍。我们的交换站体积小、模块化且高效，可根据需求进行扩展和缩小。我们每年每辆摩托车节省超过1.12公斤的二氧化碳当量。我们的项目将从每1英镑的私人和公共投资中获得20英镑的回报，主要来自改善空气质量，客户和NHS节省，以及新就业机会的增加（到2030年达到5000个）。在这个项目中，我们将展示电池交换作为车队运营商服务的相关性，并强调使用我们的传感器与人工智能和机器学习的好处，以创建我们提议的交换电池网络的数字孪生模型，以了解充电速率、环境温度、车辆速度和负载率等因素会影响我们电池的性能和效率。我们的解决方案具有多重环境、社会和经济效益。Swap-it有助于英国政府对《气候变化法》（2019年）的承诺，即到2050年将温室气体排放量至少减少1990年水平的100%。通过鼓励更多的本地绿色交通。我们的解决方案将确保每年节省160万吨二氧化碳当量（CO2 e），相当于英国目前温室气体排放量的0.3%。交换-它将为车队运营商、能源发电商、供应商和电动汽车所有者创造价值，到5年将超过1亿英镑。我们将把至少30%的年收入再投资于电池回收和再利用的研发，以限制危害环境的不可持续的采砂行为。

In March 2020, the Department for Transport (DfT) released the first part of its transport decarbonisation Plan (TDP) which sets out the case for action and the scale of the policy gap. The emissions reduction trajectory for 2050 implied by the DfT's analysis is an annual CO2 reduction rate of at least 5 to 6%.Moonlight Energy's mission is to make last-mile transport sustainable and efficient. We provide portable swap battery stations for electric motorcycles and scooters. Our Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) model for electric motorcycles and scooters is intended to eliminate the worries of charging times and range which are seen as the major roadblocks in the path to EV domination in the two-wheeled market. Our swap stations are small, modular, and efficient and can be scaled up and down to demand. We save over 1.12 kg CO2e per motorcycle per year.Our project will return £20 for every £1 of private and public investment mainly from improved air quality, customer and NHS savings, and the proliferation of new jobs (up to 5000 by 2030) resulting from the rollout of our solution.In this project, we will demonstrate the relevance of battery swapping as a service for fleet operators and highlight the benefits of using our sensors with AI and Machine learning to create a digital twin of our proposed swap battery network to understand how the following factors - charge rate, ambient temperature, speed of the vehicle and load factor affect the performance and efficiency of our batteries.Our solution has multiple environmental, social and economic benefits. Swap-it aids the UK government's commitment to the Climate Change Act (2019) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 100% of 1990 levels by 2050\. By encouraging more local green mobility. Our solution will ensure 1.6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) savings per annum, equivalent to about 0.3% of the UK's current greenhouse emissions.Swap-It will create value for fleet operators, energy generators, suppliers, and EV owners in excess of £100m by Y5\. We will re-invest at least 30% of our annual earnings into R&D for battery recycling and recovery to limit unsustainable sand mining practices that harm our environment.
