Africa’s leading electric mobility company, SPIRO, has released its inaugural Sustainability Report, outlining the environmental, social and economic impact of its operations while setting ambitious sustainability targets.
The report establishes the company’s first comprehensive Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) baseline, which will be used to measure future progress as it expands clean transport infrastructure and affordable electric mobility solutions across Africa.
Speaking about the report, SPIRO Founder and Chairman of Equitane, Gagan Gupta, said the company is committed to building transport systems that are economically, socially and environmentally sustainable for future generations.
Group Chief Executive Officer Anant Badjatya said sustainability will remain central to SPIRO’s long-term growth strategy, guiding its investments, manufacturing, innovation and partnerships across the continent.
The report highlights several key milestones, including SPIRO’s first comprehensive greenhouse gas inventory covering Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions.
The company aims to achieve net-zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2040 and projects that its electric mobility ecosystem will help avoid up to 700,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually by 2030.
SPIRO also reported a 15–25 percent reduction in energy consumption at its assembly facilities through efficiency measures and disclosed plans to introduce on-site solar power at selected battery-swapping stations.
Additionally, the company said it trained more than 4,000 people across Africa in electric vehicle maintenance and battery management in 2025. It added that commercial riders using SPIRO electric motorcycles are reducing their operating costs by between 70 and 80 percent compared to petrol-powered motorcycles.
