Some of the areas VWSA is exploring for pilot projects include electrified rural hubs powering sustainable agriculture that will incorporate solar PV, electric tractors, and electric scooters. The first pilot will be in Rwanda. The Memorandum of Understanding for this pilot was signed early this month and the project is set to be commissioned in mid-2024.
More pilots are planned for electric scooters as well as kick scooters, targeting ride-sharing, leisure and tourist applications for tourists and hotels, as well as rental companies, for the wider local population in select markets. Once these proofs of concept are proven, VWSA will then scale them up and replicate them in more markets on the African continent. It is really good to see VW taking all these initiatives.
