Holland Car to goes bio-gas green

Holland Car Plc is making preparations to take its car assembly process a step further by shifting to complete knockdown (CKD), where all the parts will be imported in pieces to be welded, painted and assembled in Ethiopia, it says.

So far it has been assembling vehicles from semi knockdown (SKD) kits, where parts are welded, painted and assembled. In its earlier relationship with Lifan Motors and now with Anhui Jianghuai Plc (JAC) Holland Car receives SKD kits. In a CKD, the parts, including the internal combustion engine and the transmission, will be supplied in parts for assembly by the receiving company.

Ethiopia will produce its first car to biofuel
Ethio­pia will launch its first ve­hicle po­we­red with bio­fuel, as­sem­bled on site with the aim of re­du­cing the heavy re­liance of the coun­try vis-​à-​vis oil.

The local fac­to­ry auto as­sem­bly Hol­land Car has an­noun­ced that the first car po­we­red with bio­fuel will be ex­hi­bi­ted in No­vem­ber 2009 in Addis Ababa.

The Di­rec­tor Ge­ne­ral of the fac­to­ry, Te­se­ma Ta­desse, told re­por­ters that the de­ci­sion to pro­duce au­to­mo­tive bio­fuel will help Ethio­pia to re­duce the cost of im­por­ting fuel, which to­ta­led about 1 bil­lion U.S. dol­lars by year.
