Africa is set to leapfrog to electric mobility thanks to a combination of ever-reducing cost of EV components, vast renewable energy resources, and a young tech savvy population keen to adopt cost-effective transport solutions. 

However, many emobility players are in (or near) the startup stage with little time and resources to contribute deeply into engaging local and national authorities about an enabling economic environment. Governments are still at the policy formulation stage without sufficient frameworks to accommodate emobility across the 5 main sectors of Transport, Energy, Industry, Environment and Finance. 

AEMDA is an industry initiative co-creating and supporting the implementation of high-impact actions across these five sectors in collaboration with public, private and non-governmental(NGO) bodies. Its vision is to support the achievement of Africa’s first one million locally-assembled EVs by 2030.

Membership at AEMDA will remain free and informal to allow organisations of all sizes and at all stages to tap into the resources and networks developed by AEMDA for the EV market across Africa.
