SOLAR E-CYCLES KENYA LTD [ ![Solar e-Cycles Kenya Ltd](https://seedstars-com.s3.amazonaws.com/images/Solar_e-Cycles_Kenya_Ltd.max-594x300.png) ](https://www.solar-e-cycles.com/) ## Solar e-Cycles Kenya Ltd **Problem we are solving** 30 million motorcycles are imported to the continent yearly adding 4 tons of CO2 each per year in Africa. In addition, 36% of food is wasted between farm and fork; 20% of which happens due to of lack of cold chain. Further exacerbating this problem, 600 million people live without electricity, and half of the population earns less than $2 a day. **Solution** We bring together solar power, e-mobility and the internet to deliver solutions that create jobs, and increase productivity while at the same time protecting the environment. Our solar powered e-mobility targets high value transportation segments maximizing productivity and lowering costs. The real advantage of our innovation is that it is a productive asset that can mobilize finance essential to scale. We are currently replicating the business model across Africa using technology: IoT, GPS, GSM, and mobile money on a solar powered electric cargo tricycle.
