Students learned about the Reborn factory and the importance of electromobility
The young people from the Instituto Inglés participated in an educational talk and visited the company's factory, where they learned about the assembly process of the electric buses, as well as riding the Queltehue taxibus, a unit specialized in mining transportation.
In order to reach the younger generations and expand the importance of caring for the environment, Reborn held two meetings with fourth grade students from the Rancagua English Institute, where the REM team explained the relevance of sustainable transportation and that all people are relevant actors in the protection of the environment.
On the first day, the R&D engineer and leader of the hydrogen area, Daniel Montoya, together with the communications manager of Reborn Electric Motors, Florencia Ulloa, presented the students about relevant topics in environmental matters, as well as climate change and its rapid progress, the existence of ecological transport and the example that the work carried out by the company in Rancagua constitutes today.
The second day was held at the REM factory, where the youngsters got to know Queltehue and Tricahue electric buses, had the chance to move in them and, in addition, were able to see the process of creating these vehicles on site, currently operating at Codelco's El Teniente Division mine.
“As a brand that promotes sustainable mobility, we must promote our knowledge and development with people of all ages, especially the little ones, whose path and decisions impact the world today and will do so even more in their adulthood. We will continue supporting and accompanying schools and educational institutions on this path”, commented Montoya.
At the end of the activity, the students made drawings of how they imagined a bus reaching the moon, making jobs full of creativity and color, in the context that the Reborn units have already covered more than 384,400 kilometers (distance between the Earth and the moon) in its mining operation.
