Mpango wa Kutokomeza Kaboni

Kadiri kilomita nyingi zinavyokuwa bila hewa chafu, ndivyo miji inavyokuwa bora zaidi.

Lengo letu

Tunaongeza sehemu ya magari yasiyotoa hewa chafu kwenye jukwaa letu la kukodi usafiri mtandaoni barani Ulaya hadi asilimia 50 ifikapo mwaka wa 2030 na asilimia 70 katika masoko yaliyochaguliwa.

Tunajua kutokana na maoni ya madereva kwamba kuhamia kwenye magari ya umeme (EV) kunategemea imani yao katika kuyafikia na kuyaendesha kwa urahisi kama magari ya kawaida.

Ndiyo maana tunalenga kupunguza vikwazo, tukiwa na lengo moja akilini: kufanya magari ya umeme kuwa mbadala bora zaidi.

Nguzo 3 za Mpango wa Kutokomeza Kaboni:

Kuboresha upatikanaji na uelewa wa magari ya umeme

Asilimia 35 ya madereva wanaoendesha usafiri wa kukodi mtandaoni wanasema bei za magari ya umeme ndio kikwazo kikuu cha kubadili magari na asilimia 60 wanataka taarifa zaidi kuhusu magari ya umeme kabla ya kufanya ya kubadilisha.

Tunashirikiana na watengenezaji na wafadhili ili kutoa suluhisho zinazofaa zaidi mahitaji ya madereva wanaoendesha usafiri wa kukodi mtandaoni.
Tunazingatia ufahamu wa madereva kwa kushiriki taarifa kuhusu mipango ya Bolt ya kutumia magari ya umeme, uzoefu wa madereva, pamoja na mifumo ya usaidizi na motisha zinazopatikana.

Kupunguza vikwazo vya kuchaji

Asilimia 72 ya madereva wa magari ya umeme wanasema changamoto kubwa zaidi za kuendesha magari ya umeme ni kupata chaja zinazopatikana na gharama za kuchaji haraka.

Kuongeza hitaji la abiria

Asilimia 60 ya abiria wanasema wana uwezekano mkubwa wa kutumia usafiri wa kukodi mtandaoni ikiwa wanaweza kutumia magari ya umeme mara kwa mara.

Tunaangazia njia za usafiri zenye athari ndogo kwa mazingira kupitia aina zetu maalum ili kusaidia uchaguzi makini wa abiria.
Tunaendelea kuongeza magari kwenye aina zetu za Umeme na Kijani ya mazingira, sasa yanafanya kazi katika miji 71 kote Ulaya na Afrika.

Bolt’s electric vehicle strategy

Bolt’s long-term environmental commitment is to become a carbon net-zero company by 2040

With ride-hailing representing the majority of emissions generated on our platform, increasing the number of zero-emission vehicles is our priority.

Driver awareness & benefits

We’ve partnered with EV fleet software provider Volteum to provide a total cost of ownership calculator. This tool helps ICE drivers analyse their current costs and find the best EV for their needs.

Cut operating costs

The lower cost of electricity compared to petrol and diesel and reduced vehicle maintenance costs mean EVs are, on average, more economical to run than conventional vehicles.

Smooth rides

EVs offer a quieter and more comfortable experience. Drivers who made the switch say EVs are easier to drive and maintain.

Better cities

Each EV replacing a combustion engine helps cut carbon emissions. But the real impact depends on the grid’s power mix. To ensure EV drivers can transport passengers emissions-free, Bolt partners with charging operators that provide 100% renewable electricity.

City benefits

Even partial car trip replacements can significantly shrink a city’s carbon footprint.

Micromobility is cutting emissions fast: shared e-scooters now emit just 61 gCO₂/pkm and e-bikes 46 gCO₂/pkm—far below the EU average of 160 gCO₂/pkm for fossil fuel cars (ITF 2024).

Efficient urban pollution reduction

The average ride-hailing driver covers up to 5 times the daily mileage of a regular private car driver. Electrifying shared mobility will thus lead to more zero-emission kilometres and less air and noise pollution.

Low-emissions urban transport systems

Ride-hailing and other modes of shared mobility already contribute to public transport systems by bridging gaps in public networks. With electrified shared mobility, cities can offer convenient, affordable, and low-emission transport alternatives for every purpose a private car serves.

Our initiatives and partnerships

EV co-financing

We are helping fleets access new EVs and improve service quality for riders across major European cities, including Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, and Oslo.

Electrifying Africa

In Nairobi, Kenya, we've partnered with M-KOPA, Ampersand, and Roam to offer drivers discounted electric motorcycle leases, aiming to boost their earnings by lowering operational costs.

Rent-to-buy partnerships

In the UK, we partnered with Weflex, enabling drivers to transition to using electric vehicles on a flexible rent-to-buy scheme. Our pilot scheme with Splend is helping 500 ride-hailing drivers own an electric vehicle.

Electric 3-wheelers In Malta

We deployed an electric 3-wheeler ride-hailing service in partnership with Buzzz Electric.

Electric rental cars on Bolt Drive

We increased the number of hybrid and electric vehicles on our Bolt Drive car-sharing platform in collaboration with Swedbank and Luminor, leading banks in the Baltics.

Charging solutions and partnerships

We’ve opened an ultra-fast EV charging hub in central Stockholm, accessible only to Bolt platform drivers. This means that drivers spend less time looking for a place to charge and have more hours to maximise their earnings. We partnered with Eleport, a leading EV charging network developer in the Baltics and Poland, to install 750 electric vehicle charging points and launch a driver EV charging incentive programme.

Since most drivers do not have access to home charging, we have set up partnerships with charging operators to reduce costs of public charging in Sweden, the Baltics, Poland, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium and Thailand and continuously work to add more. Our list of partners includes Eleport, Electra, JB Charge, OK Q8, Shell, Repsol, and EDP.
