Fuel to electric: How Nairobi is moving beyond fossil fuels | DW News

Описание: As fuel prices surge across Africa, Nairobi is turning away from petrol and toward locally powered electric motorbikes. Rising costs and fuel shortages have exposed the risks of relying on imported energy — and left riders and businesses struggling when pumps run dry.
Electric bikes are offering a different path. Powered by electricity generated closer to home, they’re proving more resilient to global fuel shocks and cheaper to run. Supporters say the shift could help keep Africa's cities moving — and signal a more self reliant transport future.
