Empowering local mechanics through hands-on training to reduce dependence on imported fuel is creating opportunities in tourism, fishing, and green innovation, demonstrating scalable solutions for Senegal's clean energy future in e-mobility. This week, we spotlight Jokosun Energies, a Senegalese company leading the charge in clean energy and electric mobility on West Africa's waterways. Raymond Sarr, an engineer, is the CEO of JoKoson Energies, and he helps us explore how fishermen in Senegal are converting traditional gas-powered pirogues into electric boats, reducing costs, cutting pollution, and creating local green jobs in the process. From pioneering retrofits to building a scalable, African-led electric boat ecosystem, this episode is a deep dive into how real local solutions are emerging from the ground up.
