中文摘要
电子商务的爆炸性增长已经超过了底层基础设施和配送方式的发展,这些基础设施和配送方式不可持续、成本高昂,不足以支持由此产生的包裹数量和客户需求,并导致拥堵和空气污染问题。类似于包裹和小额货运的Hyperloop,Magway是一个革命性的电子商务配送和小型货运物流系统。Magway将我们的专有技术与现有久经考验的解决方案相结合,通过一个固有的比公路运输更安全、更安全、不受天气条件影响的系统,以更高的可预测性和显著降低的运营成本交付货物,并通过从道路上移除送货车来改善空气质量和拥堵。仅交通事故就给伦敦经济造成了超过90亿GB/年的成本,伦敦司机平均每年227小时。它也是空气污染的主要贡献者,空气污染是全球最大的杀手,每年导致420万人过早死亡。英国公共卫生组织估计,到2030年,NOx和PM2.5将导致全国新增250万例疾病病例。2015年,英国最高法院下令环境大臣“立即采取行动”,2016年,空气污染被一个由议员组成的跨党派委员会认定为“突发公共卫生事件”。英国在法律上承诺到2050年实现零排放,并需要实施措施来实现这一目标。Magway将通过减少道路交通拥堵、空气污染和气候变化来采取实际行动,转而采用一种全电动、零排放的解决方案,该解决方案可以由可再生资源提供动力。
英文摘要
The explosive growth of e-commerce has outpaced the development of the underlying infrastructure and delivery methods, which are not sustainable, expensive, inadequate to support the resulting parcel volumes and customer demands, and contribute to problems with congestion and air pollution.Analogous to Hyperloop for parcels and small freight, Magway is a revolutionary e-commerce delivery and small freight logistics system. Combining our proprietary technology with existing tried and tested solutions, Magway delivers goods more reliably, with greater predictability, and at a significantly reduced operating cost, via a system that is inherently safer and more secure than road transport, independent of weather conditions, and which improves air quality and congestion by removing delivery vans from the roads.Congestion costs London's economy alone over £9bn/year, and London's drivers 227 hours/year on average. It is also a major contributor to air pollution, which is the largest killer globally, causing 4.2m premature deaths/year. Public Health England estimates NOx and PM2.5 will result in 2.5m new cases of disease by 2030 nationally. The UK Supreme Court ordered the environment minister to take "immediate action" in 2015, and air pollution was recognised as a "public health emergency" by a cross-party committee of MPs in 2016. The UK has legally committed to zero emissions by 2050, and needs to implement measures to meet this target.Magway will enable real action to mitigate congestion, air pollution and climate change, by removing traffic from the roads in favour of a fully electric solution with zero emissions that can be powered by renewable resources.
