Ampersand Energy in East Africa is making significant strides in the electric motorcycle sector by partnering with Wylex Mobility and BYD to expand its battery swap network and build 40,000 electric motorcycles by 2026. This marks a major milestone for electric transport in Africa, as Ampersand becomes the first company to open its batteries and swap network to third-party vehicle manufacturers, setting the stage for interoperability in the African electric motorcycle sector. Ampersand's battery swap network, already delivering over 20,000 swaps a day, is built for speed and reliability, powering millions of kilometers of travel in Rwanda and Kenya. The partnership with BYD not only aims to electrify a large portion of Africa's commercial motorbikes but also opens the door for more quality brands to integrate into the market without building energy infrastructure from scratch, fostering growth and unlocking the full potential of the East African electric motorcycle market.
