At this year’s Southern African Sustainable Energy Conference (SASEC), we had the opportunity to acknowledge the incredible collaboration between the Faculty of Engineering at Stellenbosch University (SU) and Roam, a technology-driven electric mobility company from Nairobi, Kenya.

Together, they tested the Roam Air, a solar-powered electric motorcycle designed specifically for Africa. The Roam Air completed an impressive 6,000 km journey from Nairobi to Stellenbosch, relying entirely on solar energy. This groundbreaking expedition demonstrates the potential of renewable energy and African ingenuity in the electric mobility sector.

Congratulations to the teams at Roam and Stellenbosch University for this historic achievement!
