MANILA, Philippines — The ubiquitous jeepney, a brightly painted commuter minibus that has been roaming the Philippines since World War II, has just become healthier.

The country’s first electric-powered jeepneys (e-Jeepney) rolled off Makati City Friday in an initial test drive.

The 10 to 12-seater electric-powered version of the vehicle that has its origin in surplus US Army jeeps were developed by Greenpeace and the Makati City government and financed by the Green Renewable Independent Power Producer Inc (GRIPP) in an effort to encourage the use of alternative fuels as well as to reduce the effects of greenhouse gases on climate change.

The vehicles were made in China.

The e-Jeepneys are powered by five-horsepower electric motor engines with 12 batteries that, at full capacity, allow the vehicles to run 120 to 140 kilometers at around 40 kilometers per hour.

The batteries are charged for eight hours on ordinary 220-volt power sockets at a minimum cost of P120. In contrast, regular fume-spewing jeepneys guzzle P300 (US.50) or more of diesel each day.

Each e-Jeepney costs at least P400,000 to build, around P100,000 more than most shop-built diesel jeepneys.

Robert Puckett, president of the Solar Electric Company Inc. (Solarco), which designed the engines, said 50 electric e-Jeepneys will serve as mobile billboards in the promotion of cleaner energy at a time of growing concern over the impact of global warming due to worsening pollution.

Solarco, the sole distributor and marketer of the E-jeeps, will pilot the rest of the 50 units in Bacolod City in Negros Occidental later this month.

“The iconic jeepney remains, but without wasteful and carbon emitting diesel, while providing increased incomes to the vehicles’ drivers,” GRIPP’s Athena Ronquillo said. “If the project is successful, our hope is that the project will be replicated in other cities in the country and possibly other Asian capitals.”

Greenpeace said Makati has agreed to provide a facility that will generate power for the jeepneys using wastes from the city’s food establishments and wet markets.

“The electric jeepneys demonstrate how cities can help mitigate the problem of climate change,” said Von Hernandez, campaigns director for Greenpeace Southeast Asia.

Ronquillo said drivers were expected to earn two or three times more because of savings on fuel.

“Greenpeace supports solutions-oriented technological and scientific innovations that can help stop climate change,” Hernandez said. “The e-Jeepneys are a clear example of our ‘Simple Lang’ project that calls upon Filipino citizens and institutions to adopt simple yet effective measures to help avert catastrophic climate change.”

What is education? Education is the knowledge of their own potential to make use of the maximum. If people are not educated as he is not in its fullest sense.

You may think that good and useful if you are educated. She teaches people how you work, how to eat, like sleep, how to dress, what, what event, what to do, what not to do what is right and what is bad wear. Another reason for the importance of education is that education and learning is one of the most important processes in today’s society. In today’s society, if we go for an interview for the post office as the minimum qualification is intermediate.

So, my friends, is all I will say that training is very necessary in all phases of our lives hope you’ve learned how education can infect each stage of our lives, without education, we will not affected not even a good man.

It can be said with certainty that a car is important in modern life. Having a car can certainly save a lot of time. Time has always been associated with gold and profit. And one mode that would allow an entrepreneur or manager to save time is to drive a car.

However, the environment and health of many individuals have deteriorated due to the emissions from fossil fuels. Moreover, it cannot be denied that fossil fuel vehicles release a substantial segment of these emissions. At present, it is not advisable not to use a car especially when you are after an important appointment. A balance must be made so that deadly emissions that contribute to global warming be diminished.

Car manufacturers revived the production of electric powered cars in response to the worsening global climate. Prototypes of electric cars were made as early as the 19th century. The prototypes built by American Thomas Davenport (1834) and Scottish Robert Anderson (1842) were run by non-rechargeable batteries. The development of rechargeable lead-acid batteries by Gaston Plante in 1865 and Camille Faure in 1881 (both from France) resulted to more efficient electric cars. Inventors did not waiver in making other designs thereafter. In Chicago, Woods Motor Vehicle Company was able to produce in 1917 a hybrid electric car that can run on both gasoline and electric. The attempt of General Motors in the middle of 1990 to mass-produce its EV1 electric car was cut short when some interest groups intervened.

Electric smart cars are manufactured in several countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, India, Japan, and a few others are planning to set up factories in other locations. An electric car gives the owner many benefits. You can save as much as ,000 in one year from fuel consumption since the cost per mile is only .03 to .04. The car needs less energy to run. Thus, the fuel used as well as the cost would naturally be lesser. Pure electric cars can run at a maximum of 40 miles an hour. A single charge can travel a distance of 60 miles. The battery may be replaced in four years. Electric cars also emit no exhaust fumes, particulates and soot for every mileage unlike combustion cars.

And how about the price? Electric car prices are higher than the traditional vehicles used today. But the savings from fuel consumption can ultimately compensate for such price difference. Moreover, you will be doing the environment a great favor.

Thousand of electric cars already run major city streets. The government might even give you tax incentives for driving one.
