Also, help those users who most benefit from Shotl’s model of shared mobility - such as the elderly, people with reduced mobility and students - to access efficient, cheap and clean public transport.NAKED Energy, a collaborative enterprise of scientists, engineers, designers and entrepreneurs, has announced their invention has achieved Solar Impulse Foundation’s ‘Efficient Solutions Label’.įollowing a rigorous independent selection process, Virtu, the company’s solar solution that combines solar thermal and photovoltaic to provide heat and power, has been acknowledged as ‘an innovative technology that could help save the world.’Īfter the first solar flight around the world in 2016, Bertrand Piccard and the Solar Impulse Foundation launched the second phase of selecting #1000solutions that can protect the environment in a profitable way, and bringing them to decision makers to help them adopt more ambitious environmental targets and energy policies.Ĭhristophe Williams, co-founder and CEO of Naked Energy, commented on the news on social media: “When you start a company, you always dream (pray) that one day it will be successful and go on to achieve something meaningful. New challenges are arising all the time and we need to continue to protect the environment while remaining profitable. However, having achieved this objective doesn’t mean our work is done. Solar Impulse’s initial challenge was to reach 1000 solutions that could be awarded their label, and Shotl is proud to be among the first batch. This will eventually lead to cleaner, greener, carfree cities and, as a result, a reduction in CO2 emissions and improved human health. Shotl’s mission has always been to develop and continuously improve a platform that makes collective transportation as flexible and convenient as private cars, as well as help reduce the number of private vehicles in cities in the near future. This perfectly matched both the idea behind Shotl and our objective of providing a valuable transportation option in areas where public transportation is often insufficient and highly subsidised. The idea was to raise awareness among governments, companies and entrepreneurs about the need to care for the environment and face the future with clean technologies. Solar Impulse Foundation was created by Bertrand Piccard after completing a flight around the world in a solar-powered airplane, demonstrating that this type of achievement was not beyond the reach of environmentally friendly technologies. Shotl obtained the award in February 2020 after a thorough evaluation by Solar Impulse Foundations’s team of independent experts. Since its foundation in 2017, Shotl has also demonstrated concern about the environmental impact of low-ridership fixed public transportation lines, which led us to apply for the prestigious label for our demand-responsive transit (DRT) platform. For the past five years, the Solar Impulse Foundationhas focused on identifying and labelling different startups, companies and products that address sustainability challenges such as climate change or carbon emissions while still remaining profitable. ![]()
