China is becoming ever wealthier – especially the country’s middle class. And as prosperity grows, so does the number of cars on the streets. But that trend has led to increasingly congested roads and air pollution. Now, a group of Chinese companies are working together with the German Society for International Cooperation (GiZ) to protect the environment. Together, they believe electro-mobility could be the key to clearing the air and reducing traffic. The technology and infrastructure are lacking, but they’re still driving forward with research and experimentation. They're trying out electric taxis and public transit in more than 20 test cities across China. Electric bicycles and scooters are already on the road.
