EcoSecurities, a global leader in climate solutions, has teamed up with the Energy Quest Foundation, a passionate group working to advance clean energy and sustainable transport in Africa.
The collaboration aims to speed up the rollout of electric vehicles and related infrastructure across sub-Saharan Africa by tapping into climate finance and carbon markets.
This partnership is all about finding new ways to fund and support electric mobility projects — like electric buses and motorcycles — that can reduce pollution and boost green growth in Ghana and beyond.
By combining EcoSecurities’ expertise in climate finance with Energy Quest’s deep local knowledge, they hope to create real, investable projects that make a difference.
Pablo Fernández, CEO of EcoSecurities, said the collaboration is a perfect match, saying, “Together, we can help catalyze investment in low-carbon transport solutions that not only reduce
emissions but also drive inclusive, sustainable growth across Ghana and the wider continent.”
Lesley Arthur, Founder of Energy Quest Foundation, added that moving towards electric mobility isn’t just about technology—it needs teamwork and smart financing.
She highlighted their EV Revolution Africa Conference as a key platform to bring governments, investors, and partners together to push clean transportation forward.
“At Energy Quest Foundation, we recognize that scaling e-mobility in Africa goes beyond technology—it requires strong partnerships and coordinated financing. We’re proud to partner with
EcoSecurities, whose global track record in climate finance and carbon markets makes them an ideal collaborator for advancing transformative transport solutions.”
She added, “Together, we’re bringing governments, multilateral institutions, investors, and development partners to the table to unlock capital for clean, inclusive mobility. Through our platform, the EV Revolution Africa (ERA) Conference, we’re creating the space for these vital conversations—turning momentum into meaningful action across the continent.”
Transport accounts for nearly a quarter of Africa’s energy-related emissions and is growing fast as cities expand and more vehicles hit the road.
In Ghana, transport contributes around 17% of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions and makes up almost half of energy-related CO₂ emissions.
Electric vehicles and charging infrastructure offer a bright path forward — reducing pollution, improving air quality, saving energy, and supporting economic growth that includes everyone.
This partnership is a big step toward a cleaner, healthier future for Ghana and the continent as a whole.
