Electric mobility in South East Asia
The key to unlocking electric mobility in Southeast Asia lies not with electric cars, but with electric motorbikes, which are the dominant form of transport in nations like Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand. The primary barrier to adoption is the lack of suitable charging infrastructure - current car-centric charging stations are impractical for motorbikes. Instead of traditional charging, a standardized battery swapping infrastructure, which would offer a faster, cheaper, and more convenient solution for the light, removable batteries used in electric motorbikes, is much better.
