We had a very interesting session interviewing Starship Technologies' co-founder Ahti Heinla and CEO Alastair Westgarth about how they are solving the last mile bottleneck with autonomous delivery. 🎓
"With it estimated that 25% of CO2 emissions and 30-50% of other pollutants are caused by urban freight transported by diesel-powered trucks and vans, it’s clear that alternative methods of delivery are needed to reduce congestion and harmful emissions in the last-mile.
Each of Starship’s robots can take 10 cars off the road (based on one robot doing 10 deliveries per day) on average, while an average delivery for a Starship robot consumes as little energy as boiling the kettle to make just one cup of tea."
Ahti and Alastair also highlighted very interesting views regarding human-based deliveries, so definitely worth a read! 💡
