The special media event, held at Ananda Bhawan in Lazimpat, marked the announcement of the inaugural battery-swapping station in Nepal. Nebula Energy Pvt. Ltd is the authorized and exclusive partner of Gogoro in Nepal. Mr. Kulman Ghising, Managing director of NEA, graced the occasion as the chief guest. Yang Chen, an executive from Gogoro, was also present, participating in the joint inauguration of the first Gogoro battery swapping service and the unveiling of the CrossOver Smartscooter, GX250.
Nebula Energy will initially offer the battery swapping services to strategic B2B partners and plans to install GoStations around Kathmandu Valley to ensure there is a station available every 2-3 kilometers. Nebula Energy will also be rolling out new Gogoro SmartScooter models this year for both retail and corporate customers. The scooters will be available for sale to retail customers around the Dashain period. Eventually, Nebula Energy plans to install more Gogoro GoStations than the number of petrol stations in Nepal.
Battery swapping is an innovative concept that involves the quick replacement of a depleted battery with a fully charged one, providing users with a rapid and efficient way to extend their vehicle's range. Battery swapping technology helps solve the current obstacles for wide-scale adoption and addresses the urban mobile energy demands in a safe, sustainable, and scalable way. Gogoro battery swapping is a new generation of swappable battery system that is smart, safe, and continually optimizing itself to be dynamic and versatile for riders, businesses, and communities.
