    RCS and Google Wallet services launch on L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad Ltd

    New Delhi [India] November 8: Powered by Billeasy and Route Mobile, L&T Hyderabad Metro commuters will now be able to book Digi-Tickets from RCS and store them directly on Google Wallet. This makes L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad the first Metro Rail project in the world to launch ticket booking on RCS & Google Wallet.

    Unlike traditional SMS, RCS offers enhanced communication capabilities, allowing for interactive, conversational messaging with rich media content like info cards and carousels, suggested reply buttons, and app integrations. Since RCS is natively supported on all modern Android smartphones in India, users can now avoid the hassle of standing in ticket lines or downloading apps, and can simply use their default Android messaging app – Google Messages – to book Digi-tickets. RCS is seamlessly integrated with Google Wallet to offer a convenient experience for travelers to book Digi-tickets by messaging L&T Hyderabad and storing their Digi-tickets securely on Google Wallet.

    Google Wallet provides an easy, universal way for people to access everyday essentials like transit tickets, loyalty cards and boarding passes. Starting today, L&T Hyderabad metro commuters can add their Digi-tickets to Google Wallet across all Android devices. This innovative integration of RCS and Google Wallet sets a new standard in seamless, digital commuting for L&T Hyderabad metro travelers. This service will be available to all commuters from the 11th of November 2024.

    Android users can now book Digi-tickets and seamlessly add them to Google Wallet for easy access. Once booked through your preferred channel, including the app itself, the website, RCS, or other OTT messaging platforms, adding your ticket’s QR code to Google Wallet takes just one click!

    Currently available for Android users, this service will support iOS when Apple decides to bring RCS support to India, further enhancing convenience across the Hyderabad Metro network.

    Billeasy’s expertise in seamless ticketing integration has been instrumental in bringing this collaboration to life, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience for both the metro and its passengers.

    How It Works:

    1. Send a Message: Commuters can scan the station QR code and send “Hi” via RCS messaging on Google Messages to start the ticketing process.
    2. Select Route and Digi-Ticket: Passengers are guided to choose their source, destination, and ticket type.
    3. Complete Payment: Secure payments can be made through preferred methods like UPI, with instant confirmation.
    4. Add to Wallet: Digi-tickets can be easily added to Google Wallet for quick access directly from the phone.

    “With the launch of RCS and Google Wallet integration, Hyderabad Metro Rail redefines urban commuting by combining advanced technology with user-centric convenience. This pioneering step exemplifies our vision to lead in innovation and transform the way our passengers interact with public transport services. We are committed to continually enhancing the travel journey, ensuring it is efficient, secure, and aligned with the future of digital mobility.” NVS Reddy, MD, HMRL.

We’re proud that L&TMRHL is the first Metro service in India to launch these integrated services for our commuters. This upgrade reflects our dedication to enhancing the travel experience through innovative, accessible technology,” KVB Reddy, MD & CEO, L&TMRHL.

Our partnership with L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad and Billeasy to enable RCS-based ticketing marks a significant step in transforming urban commuting in India.

  • Enen Green: Enacting and Enhancing A Sustainable Future

    Enen Green: Enacting and Enhancing A Sustainable Future

    New Delhi [India], November 7: Headquartered in Delhi in 2010, ENEN Green Service Private Limited (ENEN Green) has grown from a small team into a leading sustainability and climate change consultancy with a dedicated team of professionals. It has the distinction of being India’s first and only EcoVadis Gold-rated consultancy focused on sustainability and climate change, and it also serves as the country’s sole approved EcoVadis Gold-rated training partner. Since its inception, ENEN Green has worked with numerous businesses to help them navigate the complex landscape of sustainability. The firm’s tailored solutions are designed to help clients manage their carbon footprints, reduce costs, and build resilience, allowing them to stay ahead in an increasingly competitive market. With services encompassing carbon management, sustainability strategies, and reporting, ENEN Green’s work supports both corporate and community-driven environmental impact efforts. With a remarkable success rate in registering climate projects across multiple standards, ENEN Green’s expertise is unmatched in the Indian market.

    Mission-Driven Journey and Growth

    ENEN Green has always been mission-driven, with a core belief in making a lasting positive impact on the environment and society. Its journey began in earnest in 2014 when the company developed its first in-house carbon project under the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS). By this time, ENEN Green had already consulted on over 50 projects, establishing a strong foundation for growth. This initial success paved the way for international expansion, and by 2015, ENEN Green had launched its first overseas project in Uganda, focusing on biogas reduction. This project marked a milestone for the company, expanding its vision from national to global sustainability impact.

    The year 2017 saw another major achievement when ENEN Green registered the world’s first Verra Improved Cookstoves Project, underscoring its pioneering role in carbon management. With a growing portfolio of projects and an expanding global footprint, ENEN Green has continued to innovate and push boundaries in sustainability consulting. In 2021, the firm became an AA1000AS Accredited Assurance Service Provider, further solidifying its credibility and expanding its influence.

    Innovative Projects and Industry Milestones

    ENEN Green’s portfolio includes several impactful projects that demonstrate its commitment to innovation and sustainability. For example, in 2021, the company launched a project in partnership with various investors to utilise rice husks in India and Uganda for generating steam and electricity. This initiative aimed to replace coal, a major greenhouse gas emitter, with rice husks, a carbon-neutral biomass fuel. This project not only reduced carbon emissions but also created a new use for agricultural by-products, enhancing the sustainability of local communities.

    Another project focused on distributing fuel-efficient improved cookstoves (ICS) to marginalised communities in India’s Meghalaya region, where traditional low-efficiency cooking methods contribute to indoor air pollution and deforestation. The ICS initiative replaced these methods with cleaner, more efficient cookstoves, benefiting both health and the environment. Similar projects were later implemented in Nepal and Uganda, demonstrating ENEN Green’s scalable approach to tackling environmental challenges.

    In 2023, ENEN Green announced plans for a biochar project scheduled to begin in 2025. This project is expected to bring further advancements in carbon sequestration and soil health, helping to restore degraded lands while locking carbon in the soil. These projects showcase ENEN Green’s ongoing efforts to develop and implement sustainable solutions that address complex environmental issues. Additionally, in 2023, ENEN Green received Gold recognition from EcoVadis for its sustainability services, reaffirming its position as a leader in sustainability consulting and climate action.

    EnScope: A Tool for Tailored Climate Solutions

    As part of its commitment to providing innovative solutions, ENEN Green developed EnScope, an in-house carbon accounting tool designed to offer clients customised solutions for climate change and sustainability needs. EnScope enables businesses to track, manage, and reduce their carbon footprints more effectively, allowing for data-driven decision-making in their sustainability strategies. Through EnScope, ENEN Green has helped clients better understand their environmental impact and implement actionable strategies to meet their carbon reduction goals.

    The sustainability consulting industry has transformed over the years, growing from a niche area to a multi-billion-dollar sector that attracts substantial corporate and governmental investment.

    ENEN Green’s commitment to a client-centric culture has been foundational to its success. Leadership at ENEN Green views client relationships as central to the company’s mission, blending long-term strategic vision with day-to-day operational execution. As the company grew, its leadership shifted from managing all business aspects to empowering employees to carry out the company’s vision independently. This approach encourages collaboration and input at all levels, creating a culture of ownership and accountability.

    Expanding Impact and Global Reach

    As part of its growth strategy, ENEN Green is focused on diversifying its services, expanding its global footprint, and leveraging technology to deliver innovative, data-driven sustainability solutions. In addition to its planned move into London, where it will strengthen partnerships with key stakeholders in the sustainability value chain, ENEN Green actively seeks to develop its global presence. The firm’s expansion strategy is centered on building relationships as well as bringing localised solutions to meet the specific needs of each market. By pursuing international partnerships and adapting its offerings to fit different regulatory landscapes, ENEN Green is well-positioned to lead in the global transition to a sustainable future.

The company fosters a culture of innovation and continuous learning, equipping team members with the skills and resources to lead in the rapidly evolving sustainability sector. By nurturing talent and encouraging collaboration, ENEN Green empowers its team to drive impact at a global scale.
