See the full story of the pilot and our insights on Clean Tech here:

“It turned that it was just as important to have recurring revenues (from battery swaps etc.) and a clear route to sales, as to have a set number of bikes on the road”

At the Frontier Technologies Hub, we work with UKAid to explore how emerging technologies can help to solve the variety of challenges found in developing country contexts.

In this case study, we present the story and reflect on a completed pilot project in Rwanda, which looked to see if electric vehicles could provide a profitable, greener alternative for taxi drivers in the city of Kigali.
