After 60 Globe employees rode the world’s first hyper electric scooter for three months and prevented polluting the air with the equivalent of 3,316 kilograms of carbon dioxide had they burned 1,412 liters of gasoline by using a conventional motorcycle, there was no turning back for the telecommunications giant to embrace climate tech through its millions of customers.

Globe Platinum members get the first crack at powering the company’s decarbonizing drive by adopting the Gogoro lifestyle from the electric vehicle (EV) innovator of the same name. And minimizing carbon footprint would be exciting for Globe Platinum customers with the Gogoro Pulse Smartscooters®.

That is the relationship that Globe and Gogoro Philippines are trying to build under a recently forged partnership.

Gogoro offers Globe Platinum customers two energy (battery) plans: Plan 799, which allows for up to 420 kilometers per month, and Plan 999, covering up to 700 kms monthly.
