eMaaS = Energy Mobility as a Service
Honda eMaaS is a service to seamlessly connect the mobility and daily lives of customers through mobility services (MaaS) and energy services (EaaS).
Honda eMaaS connects a series of processes for customers, from their homes (places where they live) to the mode of transportation (mobility), activities at the destinations and returning home, thus offering attractive experience value. By providing an efficient means of mobility, it will also help resolve social issues, such as an increase in the number of people having less mobility options (including elderly people living in underpopulated areas) and shortages of drivers for delivery services.
As mobility becomes progressively electrified, a group of batteries distributed throughout the market can be viewed as one large energy storage by centrally managing various information, ranging from information on vehicle position and battery charging status to such other information as power supply, weather and traffic conditions. In other words, Honda’s electrified mobility products and energy equipment can serve as a temporary power storage and discharge device in the Honda eMaaS environment.
In this way, Honda eMaaS makes it possible to reduce peak power demand, shift the power peak and adjust the power supply, thereby contributing to the stabilization of the power grid and lower electricity bills for customers. For society, it can help increase the ratio of renewable energy use by connecting renewables with Honda’s products.
Through Honda eMaaS, Honda aims to realize the 2030 Vision, which declares to serve people worldwide with the “joy of expanding their life’s potential.”
