The CEO of Cubica Energy, Lesley Arthur, has said the e-mobility sector is poised to take over traditional means of transportation on the continent in the next decade.
She said for Africa to maintain parity with the developed world in the advent of e-mobility, her outfit will play a pivotal role in creating awareness about the efficacy and environmental friendliness of electric vehicles, scooters, buses, bicycles, tricycles and trains.
“We seek to ensure that Africa will not be left behind this time in this new initiative and developing industry of EV mobility vehicles,” she stated.
Ms Arthur said this at the maiden EV Revolution Africa Mobility International Conference held in Accra.
Her outfit Energy Quest Foundation, a subsidiary of Cubica Energy, organised the event which is an inaugural programme on e-mobility.
She noted that e-mobility will propel the energy and transportation sectors of the country to a greener environment while creating awareness of the emergence of the industry in the country.
She added that Ghana can reap the needed economic benefits from EV vehicles while achieving the required carbon objectives for a cleaner environment.
Government commits
The Deputy Minister for Energy, John Sanie for his part said the government will create the right environment and the necessary infrastructure to ensure the viability of e-mobility and make it a reality in the country.
