VayuGrid, a biofuel supply chain company based in Bangalore, India has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to create a biofuel cluster around its VayuSap, an elite, high-yield Pongamia (a leguminous, oilseed-bearing tree), in Ethiopia Africa. Ethiopia was chosen strategically based on the economics and agriculture.
Like a lot of countries on the African continent, Ethiopia has an exceptionally low motorisation rate. Ethiopia has a population of 126 million people, but the total number of vehicles registered in Ethiopia is around 1.2 Most of these vehicles are over 20 years old. According to reports and.
In an unprecedented move some months ago, Ethiopia became effectively the first country in the world to ban the import of internal combustion engine vehicles. continued] The post Inchcape & BYD Partner In New Distribution Agreement For Ethiopia! That ban was not some futuristic target for 2030 or 2035.
In an unprecedented move some months ago, Ethiopia became effectively the first country in the world to ban the import of internal combustion engine vehicles. Ethiopia’s motivation? continued] The post Ethiopia Says ICE Vehicle Import Ban Continues As Part of New Economic Reforms, Only EV Imports Allowed!
Diplomats get a lot of special privileges all over the world, which must be nice, but there are no special privileges when it comes to allowing imports of new ICE vehicles in Ethiopia, it seems. When Ethiopia implemented an immediate ban on new internal combustion engine vehicle imports earlier this.
Deaths attributable to household air pollution and ambient particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) air pollution in Ethiopia, Ghana, Rwanda, and overall in Africa, 1990–2019. The team devoted special attention to three rapidly developing Sub-Saharan countries: Ethiopia, Ghana and Rwanda. Air pollution was responsible for 1.1 Fisher et al.
Ethiopia spent nearly $6 billion to import fossil fuels last year — with more than half of that spending going to fuel vehicles. In response, Ethiopia’s Transport and Logistics Ministries have announced that automobiles cannot enter Ethiopia, unless they are electric. (!)
Historically, less economically rich countries have been the “dumping ground” of older, “out of date” vehicles from Europe, the US, [continued] The post Ethiopia Banning Non-Electric Car Imports appeared first on CleanTechnica.
In 2013, new geothermal geologic studies or exploration moved forward in places as diverse as American Samoa, Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Azerbaijan, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Rwanda, Saudi Arabia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Taiwan, Thailand, Uganda, the United States, and Yemen.
A number of countries in Africa depend on fossil fuel imports to meet their energy requirements in the transport sector. These fossil fuel imports constitute a good chunk of the total import bill, draining the countries of the much needed and scarce foreign currency. We have looked at a few of these countries recently. Examples […].
Ethiopia’s Ministry of Finance exempted all electric vehicles from VAT, surtax, and excise tax! A year ago, the Ethiopian government introduced some incentives to catalyze the adoption of electric vehicles. They went further to exempt completely knocked-down kits from customs duty tax.
In addition, plans for new production facilities in Ethiopia and Brazil are well under way. Geely has established CKD facilities in partnership with local partners in Russia, Ukraine, Indonesia and a new CKD plant came online in Egypt in mid-2012.
As countries from India to Ethiopia plant millions of trees to combat global warming, one German company has a much smaller idea. Berlin-based Green City Solutions plans to clean the air of local emissions from gasoline and diesel engines, by planting millions of tiny mossy trees in cities.
In the past year, our operations in Kigali have provided us with valuable lessons and business intelligence which we plan to utilise in our growth strategy into other African markets like Ghana and Ethiopia. Ghana and Ethiopia are planned as the next locations. —Thomas Schäfer.
By 2015, the only countries in the region which will still pass the water scarcity test, at above 1,000 cubic meters per capita, will be Iraq and Sudan – and even that assumes that water supplies from Turkey and Ethiopia will continue to be sustained at their present levels.
Now, with the GERD operational, Ethiopia might fully electrify itself by the 2030s, without much fossil fuel in its energy mix. But suppose a drought intensifies; suppose Ethiopia closes dam gates to force the reservoir to fill more quickly. But Ethiopia isn’t setting a firm target.
Several countries, including Rwanda, Mauritius, and Ethiopia, have introduced progressive policies and incentives to help drive the adoption of EVs. As the transition to electric mobility accelerates around the world, several African countries are also making great strides in promoting electric mobility.
Regional case studies will include Amazonia; Australia; Bangladesh; Brazil; Ethiopia; Finland; Mauritius; Siberia; Vietnam; and the monsoon region. For the UK, topics will include water scarcity, farming and forestry, and adaptation.
Nighttime satellite images show that the heart of the continent remains in darkness: electrification rates are less than 5 percent in Chad and the Central African Republic, and the rates remain below 50 percent in such populous countries as Angola, Ethiopia, Mozambique, and Sudan. What does 50 kWh/year deliver?
The EV charging hub can charge 32 EVs simultaneously! It includes eight 600kW ultra-fast chargers. It looks like the electric vehicle charging scene in East Africa is starting to grow quite nicely now. This week, Kabisa launched the first ultra-fast charging hub in Kigali, Rwanda. The ultra-fast charging facility has.
Ethiopia originally set a goal to have 150,000 electric cars on the roads by 2030. About two years ago, the Ethiopian government introduced incentives for Ethiopians to adopt EVs, including exemption from several kinds of taxes. Since 100,000 EV deployments has already been surpassed, the target has been moved closer to 500,000!
Today, 65 hospitals and clinics across Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, and Tanzania are using the tool kits, which will soon be supplied to hospitals in Ethiopia, officials say. The group has trained 10,000 medical professionals on how to use the kits. NEST360 estimates that the kit is improving the lives of 500,000 newborns annually.
For the first time, IEEE members from China, Ethiopia, Hungary, Italy, Panama, and Thailand submitted proposals. Last year nearly 385 project proposals were submitted, compared with the 263 submitted in 2020, according to the committee’s annual report. The committee also for the first time awarded funding for projects in Fiji and Spain.
In 2018 and 2019, two 737 Max 8 planes crashed in Indonesia and Ethiopia, killing nearly 350 people. Regulators, airlines and travelers have been intensely focused on the quality and safety of Boeing planes since a Jan. 5 incident in which a panel sheared off a Alaska Airlines 737 Max 9 plane, forcing pilots to make an emergency landing.
I have always thought that adoption of electric vehicles in Africa will happen a whole lot faster than a lot of people think. So, it’s great that we are starting to see a lot more activity in several countries on the continent, from electric motorcycles to electric tuk-tuks to electric.

That pace collapsed to virtually zero soon after the second crash, in Ethiopia, when regulators around the world grounded the plane. The Max was introduced in response to a new fuel-efficient plane from the European manufacturer Airbus. Boeing increased production from about 42 Max jets a month in early 2017 to about 52 the next year.

The company has struggled to regain the public’s trust after two crashes of 737 Max 8 jetliners, in Indonesia in 2018 and Ethiopia in 2019, killed a total of 346 people. The new investigation is the latest setback for Boeing, which is one of just two suppliers of large planes for most airlines.
The first followed two fatal crashes of its 737 Max plane in Indonesia and Ethiopia in 2018 and 2019, in which 346 people died. The company has previously disputed his quality and retaliation claims. Boeing endured two major safety crises in the past decade.
Cassell, a lawyer for more than a dozen of the families, said the families had sought an admission of fault in the deaths of 346 people who were killed in the crashes, which involved Boeing’s troubled 737 Max plane in Indonesia and Ethiopia in late 2018 and early 2019.
