Propel Thailand Closer to Carbon Neutrality Goals

BANGKOK, March 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Toshiba Corporation showcased its rechargeable lithium-ion battery “SCiB™” at a media briefing in Bangkok on March 5, 2025, highlighting its exceptional characteristics of long lifespan and intrinsic safety, which elevate the safety and reliability of electric motorcycle taxis for both drivers and passengers. SCiB™’s unique features have the potential to play a significant role in the transition towards sustainable urban transportation in Thailand. By utilizing SCiB™, Toshiba aims to support Thailand’s carbon neutrality objectives and facilitates the wide adoption of e-motorcycles that meet stringent standards, enhancing sustainability and reliability in the transportation sector.

Thailand aims to achieve Carbon Neutrality by 2050 and Net-Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 2065^*1. The demand for lithium-ion batteries in emerging countries for electric vehicles (EV) is expected to exceed 600GWh by 2035. However, only 2.8% of that is projected to come from batteries for motorcycles and three-wheeled vehicles, both widely used in public transport^*2.

Manufacturers of e-motorcycles face significant challenges in commercializing their products, primarily due to safety concerns surrounding conventional lithium-ion batteries. These issues include fire risks under various stressors and performance degradation over time, worsened by the tropical heat and humidity prevalent in Southeast Asian countries. The increasing risk of accidents as batteries age further complicates the integration of these vehicles into the transportation sector. Addressing these safety and longevity issues is crucial for successfully implementing e-motorcycle initiatives in the region and the industry’s overall progress. Manufacturers must find innovative solutions to enhance safety and reliability, overcoming the hurdles posed by environmental factors and battery limitations to achieve wide adoption and ensure the viability of e-motorcycles in Southeast Asia’s challenging climate.

The Toshiba’s battery SCiB™ is showing potential to address these concerns and revolutionize the electric motorcycle industry in Southeast Asia. Its innovative lithium titanium oxide (LTO) anode chemistry offers superior safety, longevity, and performance in challenging environments, in contrast to the conventional carbon-based materials used in typical lithium-ion batteries. It demonstrates remarkable resilience, resisting internal short circuits and maintaining integrity during rigorous safety tests. SCiB™ maintains its performance through over 20,000 charge-discharge cycles with minimal degradation. Furthermore, its rapid-charging capability allows for recharging from zero to over 80% capacity in just six minutes, ensuring minimal downtime for e-motorcycles. These features directly address the safety, longevity, and performance issues hindering electric motorcycle adoption in the region, paving the way for more reliable and sustainable urban transportation solutions.

In September 2024, Toshiba partnered with naturenix inc., a Japan battery technology startup from Shimane University, and Windee International, a joint venture with Thailand’s parking management servicer, to launch a demonstration test of battery subscription service for e-motorcycle taxis in Bangkok, announced in October 2024^*3. Such a battery subscription service is expected to allow users to access to the advanced and well-maintained battery technology in a cost-effective way. The ongoing trial is yielding promising results, highlighting SCiB™’s capacity to deliver efficient and practical solutions.

Together with partners, Toshiba offers a safe and cost-effective solution for electric motorcycle taxis in Bangkok, addressing fire risks. This innovative battery subscription service not only accelerates EV adoption in Thailand’s two- and three-wheeler segments but also has the potential to transform various vehicle markets, including buses and automated guided vehicles, significantly contributing to the country’s efforts in achieving carbon neutrality.

• Dx, Docquity’s AI platform which is in ongoing development, will enable physicians at the Sumedang hospital to securely access the latest medical research for stronger treatment decisions
• The collaboration follows Sumedang Regency’s introduction of Docquity’s AI platform for greater public health support last year

JAKARTA, Indonesia, March 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Docquity, a leading healthtech company in Southeast Asia, and Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah (RSUD) Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang, a regional hospital in West Java, Indonesia, announced a partnership to integrate Dx, Docquity’s AI-powered medical resource platform, into the hospital’s medical reference system. Dx, currently in ongoing development, was last year implemented as a learning tool for Sumedang’s public health staff. This marks Docquity’s second partnership aimed at strengthening healthcare knowledge and patient care in the West Java region.

Built upon Docquity’s network insights as the largest healthcare professional (HCP) community in Southeast Asia that connects 3 out of every 4 doctors, Dx securely leverages compliant Generative AI to empower RSUD Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang’s medical professionals with the latest healthcare knowledge from credible sources, for stronger treatment decisions.

According to Dr. H. Enceng, SpB. Director of RSUD Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang: “The introduction of Docquity’s AI platform, Dx, into our medical reference system is expected to enhance the hospital’s ability to provide high-quality, evidence-based healthcare. Medical science is constantly evolving, and keeping our doctors well-informed with the latest research is crucial. With Dx, our physicians can access trusted medical journals instantly, improving diagnostic accuracy and treatment outcomes for the local community of Sumedang.”

Amit Vithal, Co-Founder and Chief of Growth at Docquity, said: “We believe that data is knowledge, and greater learning opportunities and medical expertise create healthier communities. We’ve therefore been developing Dx to provide Southeast Asian doctors with real-time access to credible medical research and global best practices at their fingertips. With the support of Dx, physicians at RSUD Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang can make more confident, data-driven treatment decisions that enhance patient care and streamline hospital operations.”

The implementation of AI in healthcare is aligned with Sumedang’s digital transformation agenda for public services, including healthcare. Dr. H. Dony Ahmad Munir, S.T., M.M Mayor of Sumedang, emphasized: “This program ensures that our hospitals and medical professionals remain at the forefront of advanced healthcare practices. By leveraging AI and credible medical resources, we are not just improving hospital efficiency but also contributing to the overall health of the Sumedang people. The integration of Dx into RSUD Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang’s medical reference system is expected to set a new benchmark for regional hospitals in Indonesia, enabling doctors to provide better, faster, and more accurate medical care.”

MANILA, Philippines, March 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Tonik has crossed 1 million cumulative loans disbursed since inception, cementing its status as the Philippines’ leading credit-led digital bank and propelling a new era of credit inclusion.

While traditional banks continue to emphasize corporate credit, Tonik zeroes in on a $40 billion latent unsecure consumer credit market—tackling one of Southeast Asia’s most overlooked lending opportunities with a credit-first strategy powered by AI-driven underwriting and alternative data.

In just two years, Tonik has expanded its loan portfolio by 7x, while at the same time slashing unit operational service costs by 5x. This dynamic growth and cost focus helped the bank hit contribution margin breakeven in Q4 2024, paving the way for cash flow breakeven within the next 9-12 months.

Tonik also leads in average revenue per user (ARPU) and average margin per user (AMPU) across digital banking—showcasing a more robust monetization model than its payments-led peers.

“Reaching one million loans marks a major stride in our mission to deliver fast, accessible mass-market consumer credit across the Philippines,” said Greg Krasnov, Founder & CEO of Tonik. “We’re scaling rapidly while turning an operational profit—a rare combo in fintech—and we see much more upside ahead.”

Consumer lending in the Philippines comprises just 5% of GDP, far below the 21% regional average. Armed with a digital-only bank license, Tonik secures low-cost deposit funding, strongly outperforming fintech lenders forced to rely on more expensive wholesale capital.

With a diverse product lineup—payroll loans, shop instalment financing, AI-powered digital cash loans, and upsell loans—Tonik is poised for accelerating its impact in 2025 due to aggressive deployment of AI across the organization.

By marrying data-powered innovation with genuine consumer need, Tonik is ushering in a new era of technology-driven lending—one that combines high-volume growth with sustainable profitability, all in service of bringing much-needed credit to millions of Filipinos.

About Tonik

Tonik is the first digital-only neobank in the Philippines, providing loan, deposit, and payment products to consumers on a highly secure digital banking platform. The neobank operates based on the first digital bank license issued by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP).

Tonik is led by a team of retail finance veterans who have previously built and scaled multiple retail banks and fintechs across global emerging markets. It is backed by top international investors, including Sequoia India, Point72 Ventures, and Mizuho Bank. Tonik’s tech stack is integrated in partnership with world-class banktech vendors including Mastercard, Finastra, Amazon Web Services, Google, Genesys, and Daon. Tonik operates out of hubs in Singapore (HQ), Manila, and Chennai.

As a result, customers can ensure their device specifications match intended use cases, even when only ordering in small batches. Key industry examples include:
