This technical report compiles the methodolgy, assumptions and main results of an assessment of GHG emission reduction potentials in Kenya’s road transport sector.

Kenya has set a target of reducing 3.46 Million tonnes of Carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e) emissions in the transport sector by 2030. This will contribute to the overall national goal of reducing 30% of projected business-as-usual scenario emissions by 2030.  

This amendment was ordered on 24th August 2018 on the request of VC& MD, NREDCAP (who signed an MoU with Energy Efficiency Services Ltd.,(EESL), Joint Venture Company of Government of India/PSUs for the supply of 10,000 electrical vehicles under lease arrangement) so that the applicable incentives can also be made available for setting up of charging infrastructure or hydrogen generation and refuelling stations for Government Departments/undertakings along with an extension in the exemption of registration fee and road tax until 2024.

This paper proposes the concept of e-velomobility. E-velomobility covers practices, systems and technologies of electrically-assisted cycling where velomobility’s pedal-power combines with e-mobility’s battery/motor assistance to propel the rider.

The transition towards e-mobility raises the necessity for a smart thermal management of vehicles. Waste heat becomes sparsely available and only at low temperatures. In addition, the battery requires a narrow temperature window.

Over the past few years, registration figures of plug-in electric vehicles have increased rapidly in industrialized countries. This could cause considerable mid- to long-term effects on electricity markets.

The Central Government, through this notification, ordered Exemption to Battery Operated Transport Vehicles from Requirement of Permits on 18th October 2018.

This document containing a list of State Nodal Agencies under the provision of “Charging Infrastructure for Electric Vehicles-Guidelines and Standards" was issued by Ministry of Power on 14th December 2018.

The Vehicle-2-grid (V2G) technology enabling bidirectional charging between electric vehicles and the energy grid system for frequency regulation and load balancing has the potential of significantly improving the financial viability of electric mobility.
