Anaxee Electric Vehicle Survey in Rajasthan and Delhi for estimating carbon credits.

Anaxee recently conducted a comprehensive survey on electric vehicles (EVs) in Rajasthan and Delhi. This survey focused on understanding the usage patterns and electricity consumption of EV owners who received their vehicles in subsidies. The primary aim was to gather data to help claim carbon credits, promoting eco-friendly transportation solutions.

Anaxee received a list of EV owners from the client, focusing on those who had received/purchased EVs with a subsidy. Anaxee’s backend team contacted these EV owners to know their interest and availability for the survey.

Digital Runners, local to the EV owners’ areas, were assigned the task of visiting their homes. During the visit, Digital Runners explained the survey process to them and provided an adaptor for EV charging. This adaptor was essential for collecting data on electricity consumption.

Over the next few days, Digital Runners used Anaxee’s application to monitor and record data on the EVs’ electricity consumption. The application facilitated the capture of photographs of the adaptor, meter readings, the EVs, and their owners to ensure data accuracy and authenticity.

This unique data collection technology enabled seamless daily monitoring and data recording. The application was crucial for capturing comprehensive data points, including:

  – Electricity consumption readings.

  – Distance traveled by the EVs.

  – Visual confirmation through pictures.

 

The collected data provided valuable insights into the electricity consumption of EVs, which is helpful for the client to claim carbon credits.

By supporting the use of electric vehicles, the survey promotes a reduction in carbon footprint, cleaner air, and sustainable transportation solutions.

Anaxee’s survey in Rajasthan and Delhi showcases the effective use of technology and fieldwork to gather essential data on electric vehicle usage. This initiative not only supports environmental sustainability but also aids in the efficient claiming of carbon credits, driving further adoption of electric vehicles.

Clean cooking solutions in rural communities

Anaxee has implemented several CSR projects to make a positive impact, as well as carbon projects aimed at maximizing carbon credits for its customers. Similarly, Anaxee has implemented improved cookstove-related carbon and CSR projects, addressing the significant challenges faced in achieving clean cooking solutions in rural communities.

In the heart of rural India, where two-thirds of our population resides, lies a challenge that often goes unnoticed – the traditional three-stone stove. Despite government initiatives promoting clean fuel schemes, many families still rely on these raw stoves to prepare their daily meals.

These Traditional Stoves pose health and environmental risks. They require excessive amounts of wood, emit harmful smoke, and contribute to deforestation. Moreover, women often bear the burden of collecting wood from forests, facing challenges, especially during the rainy season.

At Anaxee Digital Runners Pvt. Ltd. we embarked on a mission to introduce advanced cookstoves to rural communities. These modern- Improved Cookstoves, designed with efficiency and sustainability in mind, offer a viable alternative to traditional cooking methods.

The Improved cookstoves, equipped with innovative designs, require less wood and produce minimal smoke. With a focus on maximizing energy efficiency, these stoves ensure that cooking is faster and more environmentally friendly. Importantly, they also reduce the health risks associated with indoor air pollution, benefiting the entire family.

Recognizing the financial constraints faced by many rural households, we have made these Improved cookstoves accessible through carbon projects. By carbon financing, we are able to provide these stoves at nominal fees to those in need.

Anaxee Digital Runners has been implementing improved cookstove projects across India with transparency and integrity. Through data-driven approaches, we ensure that these stoves reach the right beneficiaries and are utilized effectively. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond distribution – we also provide ongoing support to ensure the proper usage and maintenance of these cookstoves.

To date, we have successfully delivered more than 1.25 lakh advanced cookstoves to rural communities, with our efforts continuing to expand. Each stove represents not only a cleaner cooking solution but also a step towards empowering rural households and protecting our environment.

Winner of a city startup contest is harnessing the power of rural, semi-urban youth

Winner of a city startup contest is harnessing the power of rural, semi-urban youth

Anaxee’s business model involved “digital runners” or the local youth who act as a last-mile network.

When TiE Global Summit 2022, one of the world’s largest gatherings of startup leaders, investors and business experts, takes place in Hyderabad in December, Arti Agarwal will be talking about harnessing thousands of rural youth to take e-commerce and social initiatives into the deep pockets of India. Co-founder of an Indore-based startup, called Anaxee Digital Runners, with Govind Agrawal, Arti is the winner of this year’s Pune Chapter of the TiE Women’s Global Contest.

India has a high youth unemployment rate, a crisis worsened by the coronavirus pandemic. Anaxee’s business model involved “digital runners” or the local youth who act as a last-mile network. “As a company, our business is to help other businesses scale in Tier II and Tier III geographies. We started in 2016, essentially as a KYC or a verification business. This was the time that major telecom and fintech companies had deployed thousands of people across the country to carry out digital onboarding. One hundred crore Indians had also been enrolled for Aadhaar that year. After these initiatives, the enrolment operators were jobless. These were trained resources who knew to use technology and take fingerprints, among others. Anaxee started as an on-demand KYC for fintech companies,” says Arti, whose background is in biometrics.

Over the years, it has become one of India’s largest last-mile runner networks. Till now, more than 40,000 runners have cumulatively worked for them and the startup has a presence in 26 states, including those in the Northeast. Anaxee raised its last funding in 2018, taking the total amount raised to Rs 2.50 crore. The company earned a revenue of Rs 19.4 crore and turned profitable in 2022. “Now, we will look to raising a pre-series round of $ eight million,” says Arti.

The Anaxee runners work in conducting market surveys, data collection, lead generation, verification and KYC, among others, for companies. “We are working in Tier II and Tier III cities in different geographies in India. We don’t do Tier I cities. Around Pune, for instance, our runners are present in various talukas working, mostly, in lead generation for tractors in that area,” says Arti.

The service has been used by a number of major brands, chiefly in the consumer and agritech sectors. The model suits companies that either don’t have the resources or don’t want to invest in rural geographies but want to make inroads in that market. A lot of brands, for instance, have showrooms in the major metros but not in places such as Nashik and Sangli despite a demand but not enough promise of volume.

“That is one of the reasons that we see a lot of commerce flow coming from smaller towns and cities. There are people with aspirations but products and services do not reach them. The solution would be to have an aggregator who is able to aggregate the demand and make these services available on demand. We thought that multiple brands can use our network for services and products. It becomes affordable for them because they don’t have to pay us the entire cost of the supply chain. When they use our services, we become successful and are able to upgrade” says Arti.

The runners are local youth who live in these towns and cities. A lot of them are students, who have passed Class 12 and many are graduates. They are tech and mobile-savvy and would have shifted to a bigger town in search of job opportunities. With more funding, Anaxee plans to develop its technology and spend on upgraded soft-skill development and other training for the runners.

Anaxee has built systems for training the runners, getting feedback and for quality checks. “We have a sustainable way of onboarding and training our runners. All the training and assessments happen online. Before runners work on a project, they have to undergo training. We do frequent Zoom sessions with runners online so that we know them better. We realise that the runners are self-motivated, we just need to ensure that the training is proper,” says Arti, adding that the company has a sizeable support team in the office to handle queries from the runners if they face issues on the field. “We have a quality check team that monitors work done on the field in real-time. Even if a runner happens to make a mistake, we quickly give them feedback and bring them on track” she says.

One of the biggest successes of the company was during the vaccination drive last year as the government tried to get people to take the shot against Covid-19. Anaxee ran a programme called Project Swaraksha, which was a vaccination awareness drive to help rural citizens get vaccinated. “We counselled almost 30 lakh rural citizens and successfully vaccinated around 18 lakh. It is possible that more people got vaccinated but we don’t have proof,” says Arti. “Project Suraksha was great as our runners were unemployed due to the lockdown and this was an opportunity for them to earn as much as Rs 50,000 per month” she adds.

Project Swaraksha Documentary by Facebook | Anaxee Digital Runners Pvt Ltd

This #film is very important. It showcases how Project Swaraksha created an impact on a large scale. We reached 3 million rural citizens, counseling them and helping 2 million people get vaccinated. This project helped in demonstrating how a large distributed human network equipped with the right technology can help in solving any kind of problem.

Around 1 year back, in June 2021, when Vaccine Hesitancy was a big concern across Rural India, Anaxee Digital Runners Private Limited started a small social initiative with our #Digital Runners to help counsel rural citizens and explain the benefits of the Covid Vaccine. Since the complete CoWIN Vaccination program was online, there was a digital divide, making access to vaccination difficult for a lot of rural people.

Do you remember, people, fighting to get an appointment on the CoWIN portal?

Project Swaraksha came to the rescue, providing digital assistance using Digital Runners + Technology. We thank Meta (aka Facebook) for covering our story in such a beautiful manner. Please go through this 9 mins Documentary made by National Film Award-winning producer, Priyanka More on Project Swaraksha and Anaxee. Released on #FacebookWatch.
