e-mpact

Direct

• Promotion of sustainable industrialization: with the funding, E-mpact can place orders with its suppliers for the production of the first units of bikes, which will be assembled in Aveiro in the north of Portugal – while this funding will enable the production of around 30 bikes, the company’s goal is to reach 300 units produced in the first 3 years. The company prioritizes bike components made in Europe, and most are produced in Portugal, while some come from Spain. E-mpact main production partners are Reynolds Technology and Mahle, which have responsible value chains in place.

Indirect

• Promotion of innovation and entrepreneurship: a part of the grant will be used to further research and development for innovation with the goal of putting in the market a product that improves urban mobility while contributing to better air quality and lower environmental impact production.
• Promotion of accessible and sustainable urban mobility with lower environmental impact: with the use of a technology that records the production’s CO2 emissions and measures in real-time the emissions avoided by the time of cycling, the E-mpact bike contributes to accelerate carbon neutrality. The technology works through managing the life cycle of the product through a digital passport – a digital repository of information about the bike, insurance, warranties and maintenance.
