During the early days of the coronavirus pandemic in Nairobi, Kenya, something improbable happened: a mountain appeared. To curb the transmission of the virus, authorities called on the city’s thousands of private bus operators to cease trading. “Within three days, the air completely cleared,” recalls entrepreneur Jit Bhattacharya. “You could see Mount Kenya … crystal clear,” some 90 miles away. Bhattacharya also saw an opportunity.
The electric mobility startup formerly known as Opibus, an Earthshot Prize finalist in 2022, has two separate bus models designed for Nairobi’s needs. The Roam Rapid can seat up to 90 people, has a range of over 360 kilometers and is designed to carry passengers along major corridors and on routes such as airport transfers. The bus has undergone four pilot schemes and is currently being trialed on Thika Road, a major highway in the capital.

American cities are racing to bring electric charging stations near youThere's been a steady drumbeat of announcements from mayors about their plans to blanket their cities with electric vehicle charging stations — and to keep equity considerations front and center when choosing sites. The mayors should definitely put charging stations in low income areas cause equity. Like putting a Neiman Marcus across from the local Zippy Convenience Store and Liquor. Make sense to me. And it fits nicely with the incoherent boob in the White House. EV blanketing too? you do realise that Hong Kong is not in America?
