Charging vehicles with solar, not diesel
Africa's EV transition only delivers its environmental and economic promise when charging is powered by clean, low-cost energy. Charging EVs from a diesel-backed grid simply shifts the emissions problem upstream, and exposes operators to fuel-price volatility on the FX-denominated cost of diesel.
Prime Digital Tek's preferred architecture pairs every EV charging hub with solar PV and battery energy storage, so charging draws first on stored solar, falls back to the grid when available, and treats diesel as a last resort.
