Ecomobilus: The innovative company revolutionizing transportation in Kenya

28 Maggio 2023

We thank God for the innovative efforts of people to save our common home and to respond to their people’s needs. Paul Waweru, a Kenyan high school teacher, is using old laptop batteries to turn petrol-powered bikes into electric ones. He buys old batteries, checks them and takes the cells that can still hold a decent charge. Once he has enough, he configures them into battery packs to replace the internal combustion engines of existing scooters and bikes. A fully charged battery can travel 100 km.
