OX Rwanda

Scaling Zero-Emission Vehicles in Rural Rwanda

The project aims to increase Ox’s electric trucks fleet and depots in Rwanda. The electric trucks will provide transport services at the last mile to bottom of the pyramid customers, reducing post-harvest losses of produce and improving access to markets.

Outcome and Impact

Through this project, 4,482 people will gain enhanced energy access. On an annual basis, 227 tCO2e will be reduced and 68 MWh of clean electricity will be generated. OX Rwanda Ltd plans to create 50 temporary and 28 permanent jobs, with 54% of leadership positions filled by women. Savings on energy-related expenditure is estimated to be EUR 5K.
