Sustainable Transport in Africa made IZI

VISION

Accelerating the transition to sustainable transportation

Africa's cities are growing rapidly, and with that comes a huge challenge of meeting transportation needs while addressing rising fuel costs and environmental concerns. Many public transport vehicles are over 20 years old, contributing heavily to pollution and 40% of the continent's greenhouse gas emissions. However, Africa's wealth of renewable energy resources creates a game-changing opportunity. With electricity costing significantly less than in developed markets, transitioning to electric vehicles offers a path to clean, affordable cost saving urban transport and logistics.

IZI's mission is to accelerate the transition to sustainable, efficient and environmentally friendly transportation, transforming the way people and goods move across Africa.
