We are currently talking to a fuel station company in East Africa to deploy solar powered battery banks for electric bikes across 250 of their petrol pumps. We have already powered two of their stations with panels and batteries as a proof of concept. They know there is an energy transition coming from fuel to electric and they want to be at the beginning of this curve. The transition has started across the world.

Ramez (in the article) is on my Board. He has always maintained that price point/economics is crucial for tech to become main stream, to a point that adoption often can be much faster than anticipated. This has definitely been true for solar adoption so far - it has beat all expectations until now. I won't be surprised if this happens for EVs too.
