The over Shs 110m facility will offer affordable charging rates to EV riders and drivers. The electric charging points are an energy solution to the growing number of electric bikes being used in the country, including the first batch of 26 electric bikes under Green Hub.
Stephen Kaboyo, the chairman of TotalEnergies Marketing, said the installation of the first EV charger solution is part of the journey to support the country in achieving its net zero goals.
“We have a very strong testimony of how you can move from concept to reality to have a very strong impact on solving a problem that is real and very challenging. TotalEnergies is committed to being a major player in the energy transition and achieving carbon neutrality by 2025.”
“This ambition is not just a statement. It is a testament to the unwavering dedication to reinventing and diversifying energy solutions. We are proud to introduce this first public EV charging solution on its service station network, a true symbol of a commitment to promoting renewable and decarbonised energies,” he said.
“We aim at having a clean environment. The demand might be slow, but I’m certain it will be higher in January. We shouldn’t give up. We should just simply push and push,” Joseph Balikuddembe, the executive director of Centenary Bank said.
He said that Centenary bank is proud to support the adoption of green energy and eco-friendly technology through its financing solutions. Together, we’re helping build a cleaner, carbon-neutral future for Uganda.
