This charger of the new electric bicycles is managed bythe software designed by Circontrol sends the data with the battery charge level of every battery so the software decides if they are ready to be freed and start rolling.

Electric Bicing pilot test will last until the end of 2015 with 45 indoor and 5 outdoor stations. It started with 1.000 subscribers that increased in 4.000 users and, nowadays there’s a waiting list to use the service. On average it’s used 115 times per day and the average distance traveled is 2,7km regarding the 1,9km with the regular bicycle and 20 minutes regarding the 13 of the regular bicycle.

This service complements Bicing and is created to expand the service, increase the sustainability and make long and sloping rides using bikes that are only 3 kg heavier than the regular ones, with a quick charge and autonomy of 40 km.
