Regenerative Energy Harvesting for Electric Vehicles

A pioneering research project in Rwanda exploring how kinetic energy from motion and braking can be captured, stored, and reused to extend EV battery life and reduce charging frequency.

The Challenge

Rwandan EV owners face frequent charging needs due to hilly terrain and stop-and-go traffic patterns, especially in urban areas.

Our Solution

Advanced regenerative braking systems combined with motion energy harvesting technology that captures energy normally lost as heat.

Impact & Results

Preliminary results show 15-25% energy recovery in Kigali's hilly terrain, potentially reducing daily charging needs by one full cycle.
