Recently, the SDGs, the Paris Agreement and carbon neutrality in Japan have been announced, and there is a worldwide demand for the reduction of CO2 emissions and the use of clean energy.
Therefore, we have focused on electric small mobility, which is easy to develop infrastructure and can be used as a means of transport using 'electricity' in depopulated areas. We have developed the 'pico-EV', which is driven by small amounts of electricity, and the 'electric-assist kickboard', which is an improved version of the electric kickboard with reduced electricity consumption. The amount of CO2 emissions is calculated from the amount of electricity consumed, and the CO2 emissions of electric small mobility vehicles when running are measured and the trends are discussed.
