Globe Telecom’s Climatech Initiative to Combat Climate Change

Globe Telecom, Inc. is taking a major step to combat climate change by introducing “climate tech” (Climatech) as a new focus area. The company has appointed Bernard P. Llamzon, its current executive vice-president for Channel Management Group, as lead of the initiative. This comes as Globe, 917Ventures, and Ayala Corp. are set to bring Taiwan-based electric scooter and battery swapping system provider Gogoro to the Philippines.

Gogoro’s Smartscooters will serve as an eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuel-powered vehicles currently used by the logistics and last-mile delivery industry. There will be battery swapping stations for Gogoro’s two-wheel EVs, allowing users to quickly swap depleted batteries for fully-charged ones in seconds. 917Ventures Managing Director Vince T. Yamat said that Gogoro will help address hesitations surrounding charging electric vehicles and even finding parking slots.

Globe’s Climatech initiative is an important step in the fight against climate change. It will help reduce emissions from the logistics industry, while also encouraging more Filipinos to switch to electric vehicles. With Gogoro’s battery swapping technology, riders can be fully charged in just seconds, making the transition to electric vehicles more convenient and accessible. We look forward to seeing the positive impact that Globe’s Climatech initiative will have on the environment.
