Kenya demonstrator
Nairobi
1. What are the identified needs?
Kenya has made strides in low-carbon policy and renewable energy, yet still faces inefficiencies in transport, rising pollution, and gaps in energy access. Nairobi shows strong demand for electric motorcycles but lacks the charging infrastructure needed to support widespread adoption.
2. What solutions will ENERGICA bring?
ENERGICA is developing modular battery systems and a smart network platform to support electric mobility. A pilot will roll out in Nairobi with 150 electric motorcycles and 15 solar-powered swap stations, with 12 additional stations planned for Kisumu. A cloud-based management system will coordinate the full network’s performance and availability.
