Bandung Travel Company Embraces Electric Cars for Eco-Friendly Operations

Bhisa, a travel company based in Bandung, Indonesia, is pioneering a shift towards environmental sustainability by integrating electric vehicles (EVs) into its operational fleet. This strategic move is expected to enhance fuel efficiency and significantly reduce the company's carbon footprint.

Deny Cahya, Operational Manager at PT Bhinneka Sangkuriang Transport, stated the company's commitment to transitioning to EVs, emphasizing their environmental benefits and cost-effectiveness. "We want to move to EVs, friends, so our position now is that we are trying to move to EVs for environmental friendliness," Cahya explained.

The adoption of EVs aligns with government initiatives to decrease reliance on fossil fuels, such as biosolar. As fuel prices continue to rise, Cahya noted that EVs offer substantial savings and operational advantages. "Electric cars here are environmentally friendly and also very efficient here," he added.

Initially, Bhisa will deploy 50 electric vehicles. However, the company harbors ambitions for a complete transition to electric mobility in the future, viewing it as the path forward for the business. This proactive approach positions Bhisa as a forward-thinking entity in Indonesia's transportation sector, prioritizing both economic efficiency and ecological responsibility.
