Unlocking E-Mobility Potential in MENA - Regional Chapeau Report

Globally, the transportation sector is among the largest emitters of greenhouse gases (GHGs), and the electrification of the transportation sector is, therefore, a critical pillar of carbon emissions reduction strategies globally. This report presents an overview of the synergies, challenges, and opportunities related to transportation electrification in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, focusing on public transit, and adoption of personal light-duty electric batteryvehicle13 (BEV) options. The report also summarizes deep dives into how three countries are transitioning to e-mobility and outlines key policy takeaways that could be implemented if the MENA countries desire to promote the adoption of these vehicles, particularly opportunities for the electrification of public transit.
