Bunmi Felix Olubamidele’s EV Planet Set to Transform Nigeria’s Transportation Landscape
Cleaner air and a sustainable future are goals we all share. Nigeria’s transportation landscape is evolving, and EV Planet Ltd is leading the way. Under the innovative guidance of Mr. Bunmi Felix Olubamidele, the company is addressing the challenges of making electric vehicles a reality for everyone.
“We’ve pinpointed four critical areas to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles in Nigeria and West Africa,” Mr. Bunmi Felix Olubamidele says. These areas include training technicians, establishing charging infrastructure, converting existing vehicles to electric, and offering affordable EVs.
The first step involves ensuring there are skilled technicians to maintain and repair EVs. Partnering with BZB Training Institute in China, EV Planet Ltd is training local talent. “Having trained technicians reassures people that their Electric cars will receive proper care,” Olubamidele explains.
Next is Chargify, an initiative to install EV charging stations across Nigeria. “By placing these stations in high-traffic areas like malls and hotels, we eliminate the fear of running out of charge,” Olubamidele says. This network will expand into other West African countries, providing a reliable charging solution.
Mr. Bunmi Felix Olubamidele, who is also a successful real estate developer with Affordable Lekki Homes Ltd and Dastic Homes Ltd, is channeling his innovative spirit into Nigeria’s electric vehicle sector with EV Planet Ltd. His focus on sustainability is driving significant advancements in both technology and real estate.
Converting existing vehicles to electric is another practical approach EV Planet Ltd is adopting, starting with buses and trucks. “By converting these vehicles, we save time and money, making the shift to electric more feasible,” Olubamidele notes.
EV Planet Ltd is making electric vehicles more accessible by partnering with brands in China. They offer a range of affordable and durable EVs, all with a five-year warranty for free maintenance and repairs. “Our goal is to provide reliable EVs that everyone can afford,” says Olubamidele.
EV Planet Ltd caters to clients through both physical office locations and a comprehensive online platform “Customers can easily purchase electric vehicles, join our EV technician training program, and take advantage of our extensive maintenance and repair services,” says Olubamidele.
The company operates with a core team of 10 direct employees, emphasizing the creation of a comprehensive support system for sustainable transportation. “We provide end-to-end solutions, making us a convenient hub for all EV and alternative energy requirements,” Olubamidele notes.
Mr. Bunmi Felix Olubamidele’s approach is about more than just promoting EVs; it’s about facilitating a smooth transition to sustainable transportation. “Our vision is to make electric vehicles accessible and beneficial for everyone, leading to a cleaner future,” he concludes.
Through his dual expertise in real estate and technology, Olubamidele is making a lasting impact on Nigeria and West Africa.
