Africa Electric Mobility Forum

The TUMI #eBusMission was in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania together with UNEP – United Nations Environment Programme – & SOLUTIONSplus for the Africa E-mobility Forum, from the 20th –24th of March. Over 25 African cities were present for exchanges and matchmaking to companies and financiers interested in e-mobility to support the shift on the continent. Furthermore, training on E-Bus Procurement, Planning and Financing were carried out.

Dar es Salaam is the 2nd fastest growing city worldwide. It will cross the ‘mega city’ threshold of 10 million people before 2030. Today there are around 400,000 e-buses worldwide – very few are in Africa. E- buses are a priority on the continent with current urbanization rates set to increase emissions by 15% .
