Natural Habitat Adventures introduces electric safari vehicle in Botswana
Natural Habitat Adventures has deployed one of the first solar-powered electric safari vehicles (ESV) in Botswana. The initiative was done in collaboration with the World Wildlife Fund.
The ESV, stationed at Natural Habitat's Gomoti Camp in the Okavango Delta, is a converted Land Cruiser that was previously diesel-powered. The vehicle can accommodate seven passengers and is charged by an off-grid solar array.
Ben Bressler, president of Natural Habitat Adventures, commented that the introduction of the vehicle in the Okavango Delta is a step toward reduced carbon emissions and improved game-viewing experiences. Its quiet operation allows for a closer connection to nature.
