Definition reconciliation
Evidence, assumptions and operational implications are separated below.
Definition reconciliation
Passenger/light-commercial BEV/PHEV sales and active stock
- Treatment
- Null
- Reason
- No authoritative annual or active-status series located.
121 BRT buses
- Treatment
- Separate captive heavy fleet
- Reason
- Concession maintenance and duty cycle are not open passenger-car aftermarket [cetud_brt] [sunubrt_121].
100 electric taxis received in China
- Treatment
- Pipeline only
- Reason
- Receipt abroad does not establish customs clearance, registration or operation in Senegal [rts_ev_taxis].
1,000 hybrid taxis
- Treatment
- Excluded
- Reason
- HEV/PHEV split not disclosed [rts_hybrid_taxis].
37,000 EVs / 15% by 2030
- Treatment
- Target-realisation sensitivity only
- Reason
- Scope/baseline unclear and source is ministry-attributed secondary reporting [policy_2030].
Two announced chargers
- Treatment
- Diligence leads
- Reason
- Site, connector count, power, public access and uptime require field verification [cfao_byd].
23 solar-powered BRT stations
- Treatment
- Passenger stations, not public charging points
- Reason
- No evidence that each station is vehicle EVSE [cetud_brt].

Methodology
1. Evidence hierarchy
- Method
- Primary Senegal authorities and project operators first; attributed/secondary figures explicitly labelled.
2. Definition control
- Method
- Separate passenger BEV/PHEV, captive buses, hybrid taxis, taxi pipeline, policy target and charger announcements.
3. Market denominator
- Method
- Leave national passenger TAM null until matched active-registration extract.
4. Forecasts
- Method
- 25%/50%/100% realisation of the ministry-attributed 37,000 target; not current-stock forecasts.
5. Gate SAM
- Method
- 500 Greater Dakar plug-ins × 90% active × 60% reach × 1.20 events.
6. SOM
- Method
- Zero before hard gates.
7. Economics
- Method
- Nominal XOF, VAT-exclusive EVS assumptions; annual volumes remain below gate SAM.
8. Regulation
- Method
- No incentive, permit or technical standard assumed without current written authority confirmation.
9. Validation
- Method
- JSON, schema, formulas, citations, links, branding, definitions and template residue.
