Mobile Power

Mobile Power has developed a battery-as-a-service rental model that allows customers in sub-Saharan Africa to replace fossil fuels with battery-powered solutions for their businesses, homes, and vehicles. This model involves three key components: MOPO Batteries for storing and transporting energy, MOPO Hubs for charging batteries and managing operations, and the MOPO Platform for tracking batteries and managing agent activities. The company’s innovative approach eliminates the need for credit checks and regular payments, offering customers flexibility in accessing energy. With support from PREO, Mobile Power has successfully tested its e-motorbikes and battery swap model in Sierra Leone, which allows 3-wheeled electric vehicle owners to rent a battery pack for transportation and freighting, thereby utilising mini-grid electricity for sustainable transportation while improving productivity through access to new markets and reduced transport times (versus manual transportation).
