We recently reported on Gogoro‘s plans to bring its battery-swapping Smartscooters to Europe, and today CEO Horace Luke shared his vision for the future of green transportation at COP21‘s Sustainable Innovation Forum in Paris. “With the world’s megacities at a tipping point in population density, pollution fallout and rapid expansion, it is essential that we reimagine the energy infrastructure and create a renewed mindset for change in tomorrow’s urban generation. The Gogoro Smartscooter and Gogoro Energy Network are catalysts for more efficient, cleaner, and smarter energy choices in our cities,” said Luke. Gogoro’s battery-swapping Smartscooter and GoStation will be on display at the Sustainable Innovation Forum through the week.

It’s been a whirlwind year for Gogoro – since launching in January the company has rolled out a battery-swapping network in Taipei, sold 2,000 electric Smartscooters, and it recently raised $130 million in additional funding. But Gogoro‘s next move could be its biggest yet: the company just announced plans to bring its all-electric scooters and energy network to Europe next year, starting with Amsterdam. I chatted with Gogoro CEO Horace Luke about what 2016 holds for the company’s future – find out more after the break.
