Isaac Prada and José María Cancer lecture in the electric & hybrid vehicle course organized by ASEPA and INSIA
ASEPA (Asociación Española de Profesionales de Automoción) has prepared a training course dealing with the special characteristics of this type of vehicles, under the supervision of INSIA (University Institute of Automobile Research). Participants are automotive industry professionals linked to electro-mobility as well as several amateurs of electric cars. José María Cancer (co-founder of ASEPA) and Isaac Prada explained the main characteristics of Light Electric Vehicles, its market trends and types of users as well as how KeelWit designs and engineers this kind of Pedelecs. A special chapter was devoted to specific legislation and dynamic and EMC tests needed for the homologation of the units. The session was enriched with the possibility for participants to handle components and materials used in the development of Last Mile Delivery tricycles engineered by KeelWit. The good results of this course both in terms of attendance and students satisfaction will surely encourage ASEPA to repeat it in the future, being aware of people interested in the contents that could not attend the course in this...

KeelWit takes part in the 3rd National Congress on Eco-friendly Mobility and Urban Package delivery
José María Cancer was invited on behalf of KeelWit Technology to take part in the 3rd National Congress on eco-friendly mobility and urban package delivery. During the congress, talks focused in the state of the art and best practices carried out by companies in the industry sector over the past year. The congress was organized jointly by CITET (Innovation Centre for Logistics & Transportation) and UNO (Logistics & Transportation Employer’s Organization) in conjunction with the Coslada Town Council. Over 150 relevant figures in the Logistics sector were invited and attended the meeting. In his speech, the CITET Secretary highlighted the main innovative projects they had sponsored during the previous year. A relevant part of the speech was devoted to the development by KeelWit Technology of a new electric tricycle for its client, Vienenbici. This tricycle is currently used for package delivery in downtown Madrid. The Regional Government of Madrid awarded the Trike Development and its Use Project with the “Clean Environment 2012” prize in the month of May. The Congress was the perfect occasion for Vienenbici to display the latest version of the tricycle, adapted for the dual use of brochure transport and an information counter for tourists, built specially for the Madrid Town Council.

UNO, awarded with the “clean environment 2012” prize for enhancing the use of the electric trike developed by KeelWit
During a formal ceremony held in the Environment Division of the Regional Government of Madrid, UNO has received the “Clean Environment 2012” award for Organizations. UNO is the Spanish Organization of employers and companies of the Logistics & Transportation business. This prize is part of a global approach from the regional government to enhance local industries’ engagement with clean initiatives and technologies. This year’s prize acknowledges the project of the development of an electric tricycle for Last Mile Delivery in urban environments. This project was strongly supported by leading companies in urban logistics, such as SEUR, MRW, TNT or DHL Supply Chain who have offered their know-how in daily business operation in this area. Vienenbici worked as the investor in the project, KeelWit Technology as the engineering company taking full responsibility of the design, sizing and production scheme, and e+e as an energy efficiency expert. Project coordination has been granted by CITET (Technological Centre for Innovation applied to Logistics and Transportation). This project ended with the only fully homologated electric tricycle in Spain with substantial improvements in terms of handling, comfort, volume, torque and range for package delivery in pedestrian areas and crowded streets. UNO can therefore display the “sello-e” distinction as a proof of its efforts in making logistic industry more efficient and environmentally aware and as a sign of their search for excellence in its management.
