The once rivals will team up: Uber and taxi companies are cooperating in New York
Uber will team up with two taxi companies, Curb and CMT, to allow New Yorkers to order a yellow taxi on the Uber app. The fare will be based on Uber’s pricing and policies, including surge pricing, which can significantly increase the cost at peak times. Uber has discovered that partnering with taxi companies instead of fighting them can turbocharge its business. The company wants every taxi in the world on its platform by 2025.

Industries
Cleantech stands for products or services that reduce negative environmental impacts through significant improvements in energy efficiency, sustainable use of resources, or conservation activities.
Renewable energy are all sources for power generation, air and water heating or cooling, as well as transportation, that come from solar, wind power, biomass and waste heat recovery.
Sustainable Mobility & Transport describes the use of alternative fuels and advanced transportation technologies, as well as the expansion of traditional public transportation services that result in lower emissions, increased transportation efficiency, or a more accessible and usable transportation system.
By coupling batteries with electricity generation from renewable energy sources, this energy can be stored during periods of low demand and released during periods of high demand. Hydrogen storage is another form of chemical energy storage in which electrical energy is converted into hydrogen.
A smart city uses digital solutions to improve the quality of life and efficiency of urban operations and services while ensuring that environmental requirements are met.
Property Technology (Proptech) is the use of digitalization for the real estate industry with regard to increasing energy efficiency in buildings.
Market Insights
Berlin Start-up Report
According to the report by Startup Detector 2020, about a quarter (24%) of start-ups in Germany come from Berlin.
The Startup Report of the Senate Department for Economic Affairs, Energy and Public Enterprises reveals that in the coming years the greatest growth impulses are to be expected from startups committed to climate neutrality.
Market share of electric vehicles almost doubled in Germany in 2021
The year 2021 will end with a record of around 350,000 new passenger car registrations for pure electric vehicles in Germany. This is an increase of 80% compared to 2020. Market leader is Volkswagen. Germany is now the third-largest single market for all-electric vehicles after China and the United States.
Electricity would already be cheaper today with a Full Supply of 100% Renewables
By 2025 at the latest, an energy system based on 100% renewables in Germany would be significantly cheaper than power generation with fossil fuels, finds a recently published study by the Energy Watch Group. From 2025, even conventional power plants that have already been built and depreciated will no longer be able to compete economically with newly built systems with 100% renewable energy.
