Jamaica is among three CARICOM countries to benefit from a new Global E-Mobility Programme that has been launched at the United Nations Climate Change Conference now underway in Madrid, Spain.
The programme is expected to help an initial set of 17 developing countries deploy electric vehicles.
This is part of efforts to improve air quality and reduce fossil fuel dependency.
The US$33 million programme, which has been launched in coordination with the European Commission's new E-Mobility Solutions Plus Project, represents the first global, coordinated effort to promote and accelerate the uptake of electric mobility in developing countries.
Antigua and Barbuda as well as St. Lucia are among the other CARICOM countries that will participate in the programme.
