Rhymebus Co., Ltd.-Utilizing innovative technology for a sustainable future(寧茂企業股份有限公司)
After 30 years of devotion in R&D, CEO Lin Jia-Hsiuan, with perseverance and innovative thinking, has led Rhymebus to become a renowned domestic manufacturer of AC electric motors and frequency inverters. Having a sharp sense for global trends and market changes, CEO Lin believed that economic growth would lead to greater energy demand. As a man of insight, CEO Lin then decided to develop a fitness product that not only improves the physical shape of the consumer, but also generates energy for its own power demands and sends the rest back into the electrical grid.
Founded in 1987, Rhymebus specialized in manufacturing energy-saving AC inverters, auxiliary control equipment, and project-based automation control system integration. “Help save nature through the power of technology” is the corporate mission of Rhymebus. Rhymebus inverters have widespread applications in a variety of sectors including textiles, food, transportation, plastics, fluids, fitness equipment, just to name a few. The inverter’s innovative technological design helps save money and electricity for industries and reduces noise and pollution released into the environment.
Due to the worsening of global warming, thermal power plants take most of the blame. However, electricity generated from renewable sources, such as solar panels and wind turbines, are still unsteady in supply. In order to fulfill international carbon-reduction targets, enterprises are eager to search for energy-saving solutions for the production line, laying foundations in the energy-conserving industry for Rhymebus.
With success in providing services to various industrial sectors, and despite more competitors in the market, CEO Lin is more confident about developing a different application for Rhymebus’ technology. Recently, the government has been promoting fitness for all Taiwanese nationals, and a growing population has turned regular exercise into a trendy habit. When CEO Lin discovered there has not yet been any energy- conserving or environmentally friendly fitness product, he decided to incorporate Rhymebus’ core technology into fitness equipment and designed the “Fitness Green Power Station”.
Rhymebus installs an energy-harvest system in its exercise bikes, treadmills, and step machines. During the time these fitness machines are being used, the system then transforms the kinetic energy into electricity output to operate the equipment and sends the excessive electricity into local grid. This way, an exerciser using a Fitness Green Power Stations is able to get fit, generate electricity, and reduce carbon emissions all at once.
Rhymebus joined ‘Project Rising Start in Green Innovation for SMEs’ in 2017 and has adapted international standards to compose a corporate social-responsibility report to demonstrate the achievements of Rhymebus in the areas of corporate governance, environmental protection, and social contribution.
