Musashi Seimitsu Industry Co., Ltd. (Global Headquarters: Toyohashi-city, Aichi, Japan; President and CEO: Hiroshi Otsuka, “Musashi”) has delivered a fully functional Electric scooter powered by Musashi’s electric motor unit to ARC Ride (Headquarters: Nairobi, Kenya; CEO: Jo Hurst-Croft, “ARC Ride”). Musashi and ARC Ride are collaborating to promote the adoption of new E-mobility technologies in Africa.
These innovations are crucial in addressing climate change and decarbonising current energy systems. This is critical in countries like Kenya which is expecting a rapid growth in its population by 2050. The E-mobility transition in Africa will be a key contributor to the success or failure of the world’s commitment to reach its collective commitment to achieve net zero carbon dioxide emissions. Musashi and ARC Ride are proud to be at the forefront of this clean technology led transition.
