Examples of these policies are purchase subsidies, tax credits, value-added tax (VAT) exemptions and registration fees (Wee et al., 2018). These incentives have been seen to have a positive effect on adoption across multiple markets (Münzel et al., 2019).
Direct financial interventions that reduce the high upfront purchase price of EVs are considered a primary driver of EV adoption, specifically in the early stages of market development (Hardman et al., 2017).
With the launch of the first Nissan Leaf in 2010, Tesla popularising EVs in 2012 and so many other brands showing up, it means, by now, the used EV market is bulging.
This is our only way to start transitioning to EV cars if we want to start decarbonising our country

This is the study FYI.
300 Million MOT tests on approximately 30 million vehicles
8-10 years of warranty.
This shows the confidence manufacturers have in EVs.
And of course the vehicle will live past the 8-10 years by far comparable to the ICEV
A study showed that EVs now have a life span comparable to petrol vehicles when 300 million MOT tests were analysed
@RamahKizito@mtnug Try collecting the money or personally delivering it every time someone wants to send you MM or you are tempted to use the service. It's cheaper even if you have to board a bus to Arua from Kampala
If you for some reason are going through a rough patch in your marriage, your overall strategy should be to de-escalate, until you find the right environment to properly communicate. Sharp words and reactive vocal jabs will only lengthen the pain. De-escalate!
For some years we have been told fossil fuel investment in Africa for Africans is unacceptable. Now with Europe reinvesting in its own fossil fuel power industry. This is the purest hypocrisy.

Regarding the Ebola situation, first of all, there will be NO LOCKDOWN. Therefore, people should go ahead and concentrate on their work without worry. However, we should be more vigilant and observe the SOPs put in place to control the Ebola spread.
