A number of electric buses (EV) have arrived in the country and are set to begin test operations this week in the capital, Accra, after official commissioning by the Vice President Dr.
Mahamudu Bawumia.The arrival of the EV buses is an early realization of Vice President Dr.
Mahamudu Bawumia's vision as he has been advocating for the adoption of electric vehicles in Ghana as his cost-cutting measure.Earlier this year, Dr.
Bawumia announced that, as part of his plans to reduce cost of living, if elected President, he will adopt the use of electric vehicles for public transportation which is cheaper to operate, thus, will reduce the cost of public transportation.He asserts that operating electric buses in Ghana will significantly reduce cost of transportation between 40 to 50%.Dr.
