This is a weird piece to take from the article. An editor for the website who is not Ethiopian informally made the assumption that they don’t have the infrastructure and you’re saying it’s a fact they’re not ready for this.
Right before that it says;
“(Minister) Sime further explained that efforts to establish charging stations for electric cars remain a high priority, and offered that the nation’s inability to access favorable foreign exchange resources has contributed to its inability to afford to continue importing gasoline and diesel.”
So this sounds like it’s more logistically viable than ice vehicles.
And the top comment on the article is someone from Ethiopia basically confirming that, and expanding upon it to say the country has been working towards full renewable energy for several decades. Why the pessimism?
