Description

Falco's Solarcycle e-bike charger is a new groundbreaking product designed to help organisations meet and exceed their sustainability targets and obligations, with a smart modular solar charging solution that can be tailored to any situation and scale.

The innovative solar charger powers the switch to clean electric transport with the easiest, quick impact and cost-effective off-grid solar charging points for e-bikes. Falco develops and installs scalable, off-grid e-bike solar charging stations to help organisations achieve their sustainability, transport and employee well-being goals. 

Environmental and Economic Impact

Approximately, 60% of journeys made in the UK are less than 5 miles and an average e-bike travels 60 miles on just 1kWh of energy. The Falco Solarcycle e-bike charger deliver many kilowatts of this sustainable energy to staff and visitors, providing a measurable reduction in tonnes of CO2 for any organisation.

The annual CO2 savings from carbon-free commuting with e-bike travel and Solarcycle charging are substantial. An organisation with 25 employees and a 15% e-bike adoption rate can save 3,252,000g of CO2 annually. This saving increases to 16,260,000g of CO2 for an organisation with 100 employees and reaches a staggering 731,700,000g of CO2 for an organisation with 4,500 employees. These savings scale up with larger organisations, demonstrating the system's significant potential impact on reducing carbon footprints.

A vast 67.7m tonnes of CO2 is generated by commuter car traffic in the UK every year. The Falco Solarcycle software provides clients with accurate, daily, monthly and yearly reports of Clean kWh’s served and Carbon emitting Miles reduced.

Falco's Solarcycle charger is setting a new benchmark in sustainable travel with a solar-powered e-bike charging solution. This innovative product addresses the growing demand for eco-friendly commuting, offering a cost-effective and disruption-free system that benefits both the environment and employees. By harnessing 100% renewable energy, organisations can track their sustainability progress and make a tangible impact on reducing carbon emissions.
