The latest from Yongeza — new partnerships, investment milestones, and the continued expansion of East Africa's leading e-mobility infrastructure network.
We're preparing to open our largest swap site yet — a purpose-built, multi-bay station with a covered charging canopy, dedicated battery racks, staffed payment booths, mobile-money services, and rider amenities.
It's designed to serve more riders, faster, and to host multiple OEM partners on shared infrastructure. Full launch details and a partner announcement are coming soon.
Yongeza has entered a new partnership with Zembo, one of Uganda's leading electric-motorcycle companies. Zembo riders will gain access to Yongeza's growing battery-swap network, reinforcing a shared multi-OEM infrastructure model that reduces fixed costs and improves station utilisation.
Holocene Ventures, a South African impact venture-capital fund focused on climate-aligned infrastructure, has made a strategic investment in Yongeza. The investment supports continued deployment and operation of the battery-swap network across Uganda.
The partnership connects Spiro riders to professionally managed Yongeza swap infrastructure, expanding reliable battery access and helping commercial riders transition from petrol to electric mobility.
Yongeza and Oryx Energies are bringing battery-swapping to established service-station locations — pairing trusted, high-traffic sites with reliable e-mobility infrastructure for Uganda's growing electric fleet.
Partner with Yongeza to deploy high-uptime swap infrastructure and grow electric mobility across East Africa.
