The Rwanda start-up helping motorcycle taxis go electric • FRANCE 24 English

Rwanda-based start-up Ampersand has an ambitious target: to convert all of the country's motorcycle taxis to electric bikes by 2025. The company, which makes both electric motorcycles and batteries, so far counts fifty motorcycle taxi drivers among its customers, who can also use Ampersand's "swap stations" to recharge their vehicles. It hopes to increase this tally to 500 drivers by early 2022.
