JAKARTA - Yamaha has founded a new company, ENYRING GmbH (called ENYRING), which specifically focuses on battery management for light electric vehicles. Based in Berlin, Germany, the company is scheduled to start its operations in the first half of 2025.

According to Yamaha Global's official website, Thursday, December 28, ENYRING will offer subscription-based battery rental services, especially for compact urban electric vehicles, such as eBikes, with a low speed range.

The concept of the ENYRING service allows customers to rent batteries on a subscription basis and easily swap the batteries at battery stations available across the city. It aims to address the complexity of recharging and reduce the cost of purchasing new batteries after they run out of life.

The company is also committed to recycling batteries that are no longer functioning, by decomposing and reusing them as new batteries. This project is in line with Yamaha Motor's efforts to create a carbon neutral world.

In addition to providing new value in daily transportation, ENYRING is expected to contribute to reducing waste, utilizing sustainable natural resources, and increasing energy efficiency. This is in line with the main goals identified in the 2050 Yamaha Motor Group Environmental Plan.

This new initiative is not only aimed at creating a sustainable society, but also focuses on recycling to reduce the economic and customer time burdens, as well as environmental impacts.
