In the quest to reduce or possibly cut off reliance on petrol as a main source of power generation and transportation, a lot of efforts are being made via research and inventions. A Nigerian has, through his company, invented the country's first solar powered Keke Napep (Tricycle).
According to
Arthur A Okeyika, CEO and brain behind Arthur Energy Technology Ltd, the
solar powered tricycle, branded as Arton, is powered by renewable energy
from the sun and does not make use of Premium Motor Spirit (Fuel) or
Automotive Gas Oil (Diesel) or any form of refined Oil or Gas as a main
or alternative source of power.
According to Arthur, who hails from Ihiala, Anambra State, this is the first of its kind in Nigeria where the high cost of fuel and poor electricity supply is affecting the socio-economic development of the country.
