Solving Power & Mobility for Tanzania
Aussi Energy Solutions (AES) integrates the shift to electric mobility with new energy infrastructure like battery-swapping, solar-plus-storage and microgrids, to build a resilient, self-sufficient ecosystem across Africa.
A decade of tracking the energy and mobility revolutions, locally and across China, positioned us to bridge Tanzania's potential with the world's best technology partners.
Two challenges. One integrated solution.
Tanzania leads East Africa in electric mobility, yet that progress runs against one of Africa's most persistent challenges: energy security and power shortages. The solution cannot be mobility alone.
AES proposes a strategy that builds energy infrastructure as it deploys EV infrastructure The two are symbiotic. We are not merely consultants; we are facilitators and mobilizers, bridging Tanzania's potential, its public stakeholders and the advanced capabilities of our international partners.
Facilitate & Align
We act as the central facilitator, aligning government bodies (TANESCO, Ministry of Energy), local operators and international technology partners.
Mobilize Resources
We leverage our network to mobilize local partners, navigate the regulatory landscape and de-risk investments for international stakeholders.
Implement & Execute
We manage phased deployment from pilots to a scalable national network, ensuring technology transfer and local capacity building.

Mobility and energy, in lockstep
The Mobility Challenge
Transport carries over 90% of passengers and 75% of freight, almost entirely on imported fossil fuels, straining national finances. But the dominant fleet is commercial, not luxury: operators are hyper-sensitive to running costs, making the economic case for electrification overwhelming.

The Energy Challenge
The grid grew 13.4% to 3,081 GWh in Q2 2025, with a 45-61% renewable mix targeting 75% by 2030. Yet connectivity sits below 50%, and reliability is fragile. Simply plugging thousands of EVs into this grid would deepen the very shortage it must solve, so every charging strategy must be an energy solution first.

Growth is driven bottom-up by commercial operators who see clear economic benefits. For a bodaboda driver, switching from petrol to electricity translates directly into higher take-home pay and real economic empowerment.

Build the energy as we deploy the mobility
Tailored E-Mobility Infrastructure
Serve the dominant 2/3-wheeler market with targeted, high-speed solutions, with no slow, sprawling network required.
- Battery-swapping stations in Dar es Salaam, Dodoma & Arusha, with swaps in under 5 minutes, faster than refuelling.
- Depot charging for public transport (DART) and commercial fleets, overnight or at fuel stations.
- Urban & mid-range stations: Kariakoo Market, apartment complexes, and travel stops like Chalinze and Mombo.
Solving the Power Shortage
Power the network and strengthen national energy security by deploying advanced energy solutions at the charging hubs themselves.
- Solar-plus-storage hubs: every station pairs rooftop solar with Battery Energy Storage (BESS) to ease grid strain.
- Independent microgrids for areas with unreliable grid access, powering hubs and surrounding communities.
- Resilient ancillary power becomes an additional revenue stream while directly solving the power shortage.
