Extract
from the article:
The article
highlights the significant potential of the Battery as a Service (BaaS) model,
particularly for fleet operators in the electric vehicle (EV) industry.
It underlines the
importance of addressing the high battery costs that have been a major obstacle
hindering the widespread adoption of EVs.
The introduction of
innovative business models, such as BaaS, presents a promising solution to make
EVs more financially viable for both businesses and consumers.
By decoupling the battery
cost from the electric vehicles, these new models aim to revolutionize the
market and drive the mass adoption of environmentally friendly transportation
solutions.

My Take:
More
than one Solution.. 28 Apr 2017
In
my previous blog, I discussed the idea of selling electric vehicles without
batteries by implementing a leasing system for batteries.
This
concept aligns well with the current focus on the BaaS model discussed in the
internet article. By offering accessible options for swapping discharged
batteries, the leasing model can significantly reduce the upfront costs of EVs,
making them a more attractive option for fleet operators.
It
is intriguing to see how the industry is evolving to address the challenges I
had highlighted years ago, emphasizing the importance of innovative business
strategies in driving sustainability efforts forward.
Electric
Solar Hybrid Oven : Reliance New Energy Marketing Strategy .. .. 06 Oct 2023
Extract :
Apparently , Reliance is targeting its SWAPPABLE BATTERIES for this 2 W – 3W EV segment of EV market
I am sure , following facts have not escaped the notice of Anant Ambani ( - the new boss of
Reliance New Energy initiative ) :
Ø A slightly modified version of this
SWAPPABLE BATTERY can be used to supply electric power to a DC Electric Cooker
, lying on the Kitchen platform
Ø Using this “ Electric Cooker + Swappable
Battery System “, a household can replace its current “ Gas Cooker + LPG Cylinder
System “
Ø That market is India’s 250 Million households !
Ø If targeted to cover in 4 Years , this
will save Central Government, Rs 75,000
Cr of Foreign Exchange ,
currently
being spent ANNUALLY on import of LPG
Ø A DC Electric Cooker ( with inverter )
can be manufactured and sold for ( say ) Rs
5,000
Ø Reliance New Energy can sell such
Electric Cookers on a “ hire purchase “ Scheme ( 12 EMI )
Ø Reliance can sell these
through its vast network of 18,500
Reliance Retail stores serving 267 million customers
Ø Same stores can also deliver to the
household , a SWAPPABLE BATTERY ( monthly / yearly contract )
Call to Action:
To the policymakers
and industry leaders mentioned in the article, I urge you to further explore
and implement the BaaS model to accelerate the shift towards sustainable
transportation solutions.
By leveraging
battery decoupling strategies, we can not only make EVs more affordable but
also pave the way for a more environmentally conscious future.
Let's collaborate
and invest in business models that prioritize innovation and efficiency to make
a lasting impact on the EV market and beyond.
