This publication reviews Kenya’s 5% electric vehicle target under the Kenya National Energy Efficiency and Conservation Strategy (KNEECS) 2020, assessing its role in stimulating electric mobility adoption. It is intended for policymakers, development partners, private sector actors, and researchers interested in sustainable transport. Readers will learn how the target acted as a policy signal to encourage investment in electric vehicle imports, local assembly, charging infrastructure, and innovative business models, the enabling measures that supported this growth, and key lessons to inform the design of more comprehensive post-2025 electric mobility targets.
