E249: Electrifying Mobility with Purpose
from Energypreneurs Hosted by Sohail Hasnie
In this episode, our guest is Diana E. Páez, Senior Director of Energy and Mobility, William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan. Diana dives into the dynamic role that electric vehicles can play in decarbonizing transportation across emerging markets. She discusses how EVs—when supported by the right policies, financing tools, and local capacity—can serve as catalysts for energy access, gender inclusion, and economic resilience. Drawing on her extensive global experience, and using WDI's work in the Philippines as an example, Diana explores innovative business models and the need for an inclusive ecosystem approach to support e-mobility transitions in low- and middle-income countries.
