OUR CUSTOMERS

Our customers work hard and Ampersand Energy helps them keep more of their hard-earned income.

When the income generated by drivers supports 4.6 people on average in Rwanda, and 3.8 people in Kenya, savings with Ampersand Energy are truly life-changing. Petrol drivers can spend more than $11 per day on fuel and vehicle leasing costs, taking home as little as $1.60 per day. For most drivers, their boda costs are the biggest expense in their lives.

Ampersand Energy's solution is designed with drivers in mind. Our model is an EV energy network that costs less, reliable and outperforms petrol. Battery swaps are faster than refuelling, cost less, and take the driver further. 

Ampersand Energy's e-motos cost the same as petrol motorcycles to buy and finance, and half as much to power, meaning that by switching to electric customers can increase their take home pay by 45%
