India-based multi-brand electric vehicle (EV) platform BLive has launched its Green Hospitality Program (GHP). The programme intends to promote green mobility and climate-conscious tourism in the hospitality industry, The Economic Times reports.
The programme expects to aid the hospitality industry in offering an environment-friendly experience to their guests inside the property by utilising EVs for all internal mobility.
Additionally, the programme will assist firms in achieving their environmental, social and governance goals while minimising their overall carbon footprint.
In the following two years, BLive will expand the benefits of this programme to more than 200 hotels and resorts.
During the programme, the company plans to install 1000 EVs, serving more than 20,000 tourists every month.
In addition, BLive will offer hotels, resorts and hospitality chains several EV options such as e-cycles, electric 2-wheelers, 3-wheelers and 4-wheelers, along with rapid charging stations on their grounds under the GHP – BLive will assist its partners in providing a smooth EV experience for their customers and workers by providing high-speed charging stations.
