  2. MASS MARKET ELECTRIC MOBILITY TO DRIVE AFRICA FORWARD

  3. OUR VISION: THE WORLD’S FIRST MASS MARKET SHIFT TO EVs The world needs to leave fossil fuels in the ground Electric vehicle hardware is getting cheaper The ”tipping point” is not in California, it’s here! A true ”mass market” shift Cheaper, Better. Just happens to be electric.

  4. THE OPPORTUNITY IDEALLY PLACED TO LEAD THE WORLD Rwanda: • Dense concentration of taxi motorcycles • Motorbikes and fuel not cheap: Strong ‘value proposition’ for drivers, and for govt. • Green governance • Ease of doing business Region: • EAC: 3 Million motos, $5.9 Bn p.a. industry

  5. OUR SOLUTION: WE MAKE MOTORCYCLES THAT ARE BETTER AND CHEAPER, AND JUST HAPPEN TO BE ELECTRIC. • Familiar style • More power • Cheaper to buy and power • Disc brakes for safety • Chosen by Moto drivers SWAP, DON’T RECHARGE PAY AS YOU GO, DON’T BUY Minimum behavior change required • No wait for recharging • Familiar: just like petrol station

  6. RWANDA NATIONAL FEASIBILITY STUDY CONSIDERING REPLACEMENT OF COMBUSTION ENGINES WITH EVs • Viability • Policy options e.g. electricity pricing • We provide real-world data • Real ambition

  7. LOCAL BENEFITS E-MOTOS HELP MEET OTHER NATIONAL POLICY PRIORITIES. • Replaces $150m p.a. in imported fuel and engine lubricant with ‘made in Rwanda’ electricity. • Save each driver up to $1100 p.a. • Air quality: Zero tailpipe exhaust. Carbureted motorcycles = 16x worse than EURO 3 cars. • Green & high tech jobs. 2700 + 100,000 • Exports

  8. GLOBAL BENEFITS REDUCING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS • 75% net reduction • 5 tons GHG reduction p.a. • Electrifying 25,000 motos saves 125,000 tons of CO2-e per year. • Renewables save a further 23%, but adding bikes and batteries better ROI. • EAC: 3 million bodas emit 20.5mT CO2-e

  9. ROADMAP PHASE 2 NOW – WITH FONERWA SUPPORT • Putting 22 motorcycles on the road • Real-world use, motars paying for vehicles and power • Test charging station + battery depot network • See what works best • Identifying policy barriers, needs, and opportunities • Raise capital for scaling Phase 3: Commercial production Starting late 2019
