GOING ELECTRIC. In January 2023, Cebu City Councilor Joel Garganera shared this photo of his trip to Barcelona, Spain in August 2021 during which executives of the Aboitiz Group and Global Electric Transportation committed to donate millions of pesos to help Cebu City procure electric vehicles.TO FOSTER greener and more sustainable land transportation, the Cebu City Government plans to have 100 electric vehicles plying major roads in the city by 2024.
Garganera said the City has allocated P150 million for the purchase of the e-vehicles, while businessman Endika Aboitiz pledged P50 million and the Aboitiz Foundation also donated P100 million. These contributions complete the needed amount of P300 million for the purchase of the 100 units of e-vehicles.
He said that during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic when there were fewer vehicles moving around the city, there was a significant 72 percent drop in air pollution. According to AAFA, he said, ground-level ozone is created by a chemical reaction between nitrogen oxide and organic compounds when exposed to sunlight, including emissions from industrial facilities, motor vehicles exhaust and gasoline fumes.According to Garganera, e-vehicles have low-cost maintenance compared to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles since fewer materials are involved.
He added that to ensure the consistency of the green and sustainable project, they will also soon purchase solar panels for the charging stations.Electric power charging station
