Description
Energy transition and electromobility. Do they go together? In the case of pedal-powered electric bicycles ("pedelecs"), yes. Because these have a very low power consumption.
Cycle along the signposted TransVelo "Prima-Klima-Tour" on the trail of regional electricity and energy producers in the district of Tübingen. Discover the efforts of building communities, public utilities and private energy producers in the Herculean task of the "energy turnaround". Experience the construction of solar panels and the operation of a biogas plant. And in between they enjoy a break with culinary delicacies from the region. We come close to the dream of playfully easy and yet sporty mobility with power generation that is as environmentally friendly as possible with the combination of e-bikes and electricity from regional energy sources.
