Electric tricycles are battery operated which requires only electric power supply by charging that can carry about 5-8 passengers. Citizens and Drivers in Antipolo City may save a lot from this Petition.

Mission and Vision

• Our Vision is to provide an eco and budget friendly transportation.
• Our Mission is to reduce the use of tricycles and prioritizing the use of e-trike.
• Our Goal is to implement an organize terminal and community, to reduce carbon emissions by using electricity instead and to provide a budget friendly transportation for the citizens.

As of 2012, there are over 10,000 Tricycles plying the city proper and baranggays. Sohail Hasnie, principal energy specialist and his team at the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in partnership with the Department of Energy (DOE) recently presented two prototypes of an electric tricycle that is a cleaner transport solution in the Philippines at a flag raising ceremony held at the Antipolo City Hall.

Purpose:

The purpose of this project focuses on 3 things.

1. Increase the income of drivers and decrease the transportation expense of the citizens of Antipolo.  Based on the study, conventional tricycles run by two-stroke engines are not only inefficient but are also a source of air pollution. It was also determined from the pilot tests that a conventional tricycle would need P250 of gasoline to cover 100 km in a day’s work while it only costs P50 of electricity for the e-trike to cover the same distance leading to savings of up to P200 a day for tricycle drivers.

2. Building an organize and discipline community by strictly implementing a Loading & Unloading Station Area for the passengers. 
3. Reduce the use of Carbon Emission in Antipolo. On the average, tricycles in Metro Manila consume 24.41 km/l of fuel and produces 9.5, 9.7, 40.5 and 0.07 g/km of HC, CO, CO2 and NOx, respectively. They fail to satisfy HC, CO and NOx emission limits set by reference standards in the Philippines and other Asian countries. They produce greater HC and CO emissions than gasoline fueled private cars and diesel powered public jeepneys, taxis and buses on a per passenger-km basis but significantly lower NOx emissions. Tricycles account for 15.4% of the total HC emissions from mobile sources in the metropolis while their contributions to CO, CO2 and NOx are minimal.

This Project will happen with the help of the City Mayor, TODA Operators and Office of Public Safety and Security (OPSS)
