Electric bus operators lack access to reliable fast-charging infrastructure for intercity routes

Electric bus companies in Kenya and similar emerging markets cannot operate profitable intercity transport services because public DC fast-charging networks don't exist along major corridors. This forces operators to choose between limited route coverage, long charging downtimes that reduce daily revenue, or reverting to diesel buses. Current solutions are fragmented—private charging or none at all—making EV adoption economically unviable for transport operators.
