Definition reconciliation
The national strategy’s 2035 absolute target and percentage are arithmetically incompatible, so neither is used for market sizing.
Definition reconciliation
- Treatment
- Official cumulative registrations/matriculations, 2018–2023
- Reason
- Not year-end 2023 or current active stock [strategy_227].
- Treatment
- Rounded official share
- Reason
- Do not present a derived integer vehicle count as official [strategy_227].
- Treatment
- Excluded from PHEV count
- Reason
- HEV/PHEV/MHEV split absent [strategy_227].
- Treatment
- Unusable official target pending clarification
- Reason
- Absolute count divided by percentage implies ~174.75m total vehicles, conflicting with 2,250 at 0.13% (~1.73m) [strategy_227].
- Treatment
- Operator-confirmed location
- Reason
- Not a national connector/power/access/uptime census [sonangol_station].
- Treatment
- Announced company plan
- Reason
- Do not combine with installed station count [aog_plan].
- Treatment
- Installed all-powertrain capacity
- Reason
- Not actual production or present EV output [opaia_reuters].

Methodology
Evidence, assumptions and operational implications are separated below.
AOA; EVS steady-state assumptions.
Methodology
- Method
- Primary Angolan laws, authorities and operators first; multilateral sources next; secondary/company claims explicitly labelled.
- Method
- Separate cumulative registrations, current active stock, BEV/PHEV/HEV, classes, charging stations/connectors and announced projects.
- Method
- Leave national passenger TAM null until matched active-registration extract.
- Method
- Apply 10%/20%/35% EVS growth sensitivities to the official 2,250 cumulative-registration cohort; not active-stock forecasts.
- Method
- Do not use the strategy’s 1,485,400/0.85% target because the count and percentage conflict.
- Method
- 1,250 Greater Luanda plug-ins × 90% active × 60% reach × 1.20 events.
- Method
- Zero before hard gates.
- Method
- Nominal AOA, VAT-exclusive/pre-tax EVS assumptions; no incentive or FX stability assumed.
- Method
- JSON, schema, formulas, citations, links, branding, definition control and template residue.
31
Evidence gaps
Evidence, assumptions and operational implications are separated below.
Evidence gaps
- Needed
- Matched DTSER/ANTT/customs/dealer/insurer extract by VIN, propulsion, class, age, municipality, warranty and active status
- Decision Effect
- Blocks TAM, standalone site and franchise.
- Needed
- VIN/homologation HEV/PHEV/MHEV classification for 5% cohort
- Decision Effect
- Prevents PHEV inflation.
- Needed
- Issuing-authority clarification of 1,485,400 and 0.85%
- Decision Effect
- Blocks use as national vehicle forecast.
- Needed
- Site, connector, standard, kW, access, tariff, uptime and commissioning record
- Decision Effect
- Blocks network-service claim.
- Needed
- Written ANTT/Labour/IANOR/insurer requirements and adopted editions
- Decision Effect
- Blocks repair launch.
- Needed
- Written classification, storage, carrier and recipient approvals
- Decision Effect
- Holds pack work.
- Needed
- Supported VIN list, utilisation, charging pattern, warranty and paid trial
- Decision Effect
- Blocks commercial continuation.
