Sustainable Transport in Africa made IZI
VISION
Accelerating the transition to sustainable transportation
The rapid urbanisation of Africa is driving a growing crisis in public transport exacerbated by the high cost of imported diesel. As a result, many public transport operators cannot afford to invest in new vehicles and are operating outdated, unsafe, and increasingly unprofitable bus fleets, with an average age often exceeding 20 years. These further contribute to elevated levels of toxic air pollution and account for 40% of Africa’s total greenhouse gas emissions.
The high upfront costs of Electric Vehicles and lack of local maintenance expertise remain a huge barrier to electrification of public transport. Our mission is to remove these barriers and make going electric IZI.
WHAT WE DO
Go electric without the upfront investment with IZI's E-Mobility-as-a-Service
‘E-Mobility-As-A-Service’ is a full-service leasing package, which we offer at a low per KM fee. Our affordable and innovative solution simplifies the process of transitioning bus fleets of any size to electric power, helping operators save up to 40% by switching.
Our offering eliminates upfront investment, fuel costs, maintenance expenditures, insurance outlays, and significantly reduces other operating expenses through our cutting-edge fleet management platform.
Through this, we can improve fleet operator efficiency, helping to boost reliability of service, leading to more satisfied customers.
