Kenya's EV bus adoption stalled by supply shortages, import tariffs
- lbriner 2y agoIt would be interesting to know why the Kenyan Government proactively levied a tax on EV imports. Usually this would be to protect local production but if the local production cannot supply, it is self-defeating. I guess the real problem is that Governments are not agile enough to change this things as needed e.g. lets remove tariffs for 6 months and then revisit. If the locals can produce what we need, great, if not, we allow imports again.
