Campus Bike LLC, owned and operated out of Iowa, hopes to establish itself as a burgeoning example of the bright future in electric transport and strives to fulfill the vision of a more environmentally friendly vehicle.
The advantages of electric vehicles aren’t limited to just being inexpensive and better for the environment. As you will see in this video, electric vehicles have the potential to outperform top-of-the-line sports cars.
Electric vehicle technology isn’t just about changing how we fuel our cars, it’s a paradigm shift in the way cars are built and function.
Electric vehicles are quieter, cleaner and cheaper to operate than their gas-powered siblings.
How much cheaper?
Consider $1.00 can power our Electric Mopeds for 500 miles. That same $1.00 used on a gas moped will only get you 20 miles! I hate to do the math for you but that’s 50 times more efficient.
Electric vehicles are more simple to fix and thus more reliable.
The main parts of an electric vehicle are the battery and the motor. Gas-powered vehicles require a fuel pump, fuel injector, carburretor, muffler, oil pump, pistons, catalytic converter, etc (you get the idea).
Electricity can come from numerous renewable energy sources including wind and solar, thus reducing environmental pollutants.
In addition to all of this, electric vehicles can use the existing electric grid and do not require the development of a new, expensive energy infrastructure (as is needed for hydrogen technology).
Many people may visit Google’s website today to find that the page has been turned completely black! Google is doing this “as a gesture to raise awareness of a worldwide energy conservation effort called Earth Hour.” This is a great example of how businesses can do their part to help better the planet. Earth Hour promotes the idea of the global community turning off their lights for one hour once a year to save energy. Last year when Sydney became the first city to participate in Earth Hour, the reduction in green house gas they achieved was the equivalent of taking 48,616 cars of the road for a day. This year 20 major cities participating this year including Copenhagen, Tel Aviv, Chicago, Atlanta, and Dubai. Earth Hour is also supported by over 2100 Corporations and celebrities such as Nelly Furtado and music group Fall Out Boy. I truly hope Earth Hour continues to grow more successful, one can imagine the potential for increased coordination to allow more frequent Earth Hours. Imagine major cities around the world reducing green house gas emissions to the equivalent of taking over 50,000 cars off the road on a monthly or even weekly basis.

With the weather warming up here in Ames, it’s time to start getting things ready for the spring and summer seasons. It won’t be long before the snow is gone and the streets will be perfect for riding. Right now I want to mention two things: the first is that we are looking for student volunteers who are interested in working with us. It will definitely be worth the effort, so if you want to read more about the kind of skill sets we are looking for, you can check out the “join our team” page on the main part of our website. My last point before I sign off is to keep checking back with us as spring gets closer. We want to give Iowa State students the opportunity to try out our bikes and see how great they are, so we will be having some test drive sessions in the future. That’s all for now, stay tuned!
