Eveready East Africa PLC has announced a major push into Kenya’s electric mobility sector, unveiling asset‑backed financing solutions for electric vehicles through a partnership with EV Jumla.
In its statement, the company said: “Eveready has entered Kenya’s electric mobility market launching asset‑backed financing solutions for electric vehicles through a partnership with EV Jumla.” The move is aimed at lowering upfront costs and accelerating adoption among taxi drivers, delivery services, and fleet operators.
The expansion is part of Eveready’s broader transformation into an integrated clean energy platform. Alongside EV financing, the company has rolled out solar and digital power solutions through collaborations with Huawei Technologies and Jinko Solar. These partnerships bring advanced solar panels, grid‑connected systems, battery backup solutions, and smart energy management tools to Kenyan households, businesses, and institutions.
By combining financing with technology, Eveready is positioning itself as a catalyst for Kenya’s clean energy transition. The company says its solar projects are designed to pay for themselves within a few years through energy savings, while its EV financing model is expected to open new opportunities in the country’s fast‑growing e‑mobility ecosystem.
Eveready’s pivot reflects a wider trend in Kenya, where renewable energy and electric transport are increasingly seen as critical to meeting climate goals and driving sustainable growth.
