Power should move with you.
WekaCharge is building a distributed energy network designed around how Africa moves. We start by making mobile charging accessible where people live, work, connect and play — beginning with powerbank rental and growing toward EV charging, battery swapping and smart energy infrastructure.
Our lives are increasingly powered by devices.
A smartphone is no longer a convenience — it's how a boda rider takes payment, how a student submits an assignment, how a night out gets documented and shared, how families in Kampala and beyond stay connected across distance. Communication, mobile money, work and entertainment now all run through one battery.
Yet reliable access to power is still inconsistent — venues aren't built for charging, outlets are scarce in high-footfall spaces, and a dead phone can end a night early or cut off an income stream.
As electric mobility grows across Africa — e-motos, e-bikes, and eventually EVs — this same gap widens into a bigger one. The continent needs distributed energy infrastructure that meets people where they already are, not the other way around.
It starts with a dead phone.
WekaCharge PowerBank is the entry point into the network. Rent a powerbank. Charge on the move. Return it when you're done.
Locate the nearest WekaCharge kiosk at a partner venue.
Scan the kiosk to unlock a fully charged powerbank.
Charge on the move — no cables, no waiting at an outlet.
Drop it back at any WekaCharge kiosk in the network.
Kampala is our first network.
We're rolling out our pilot across Kampala's nightlife and entertainment strip — bars, lounges and social venues where phones run out at the worst possible moment. Every kiosk placed and every powerbank returned teaches us how a real distributed energy network behaves at scale.
The objective isn't simply to rent powerbanks. It's to prove the network.
Make charging part of the experience.
Guests stay longer, spend more and never have to leave to charge.
Charging becomes part of the night, not an interruption to it.
A branded kiosk at your entrance signals a modern, connected venue.
Your venue becomes a live node in Kampala's energy network.
From charging phones to powering movement.
Powerbank rental is where WekaCharge starts — not where it ends. Each stage below builds on the network, kiosk footprint and customer trust established by the one before it.
Powerbank rental across nightlife and high-footfall venues.
Charging points for e-motos, e-bikes and electric vehicles.
Instant swap stations for electric-mobility fleets.
Connected sites combining charging, swapping and storage.
The WekaCharge Hub
A WekaCharge Hub is a physical site where mobile charging, EV charging, battery swapping, energy storage and smart network technology come together in one place — designed to serve a neighbourhood's full range of energy needs, not just one.
One network. Multiple energy needs.
Built for Africa's next chapter.
Make energy access more convenient, distributed and connected.
A future where access to energy moves with you.
