Cairo’s E-Mobility & Climate Strategy
Be part of Greater Cairo’s electric bus and charging infrastructure shift
Cairo is one of the largest megacities in the Middle East and Africa, with millions of daily public transport trips across buses, microbuses, and rail. To tackle congestion and air quality challenges, Egypt is piloting and scaling electric buses, developing new BRT corridors, and integrating cleaner vehicles into Greater Cairo’s transport network. These projects require engineers and technicians who understand high-voltage systems, batteries, charging, and fleet operations.
At the same time, Egypt’s national climate and energy strategies call for expanding EV charging stations, attracting EV manufacturing investments, and modernizing public transport fleets. Local manufacturers and assemblers – including MCV, GB Auto, and El Nasr – are working with global partners to bring electric buses and vehicles to market. With Cairo and Alexandria leading early deployments, the city is emerging as a key hub for electric mobility, infrastructure planning, and green jobs.
