Smart metering, wheeling and trading software for South Africa's electricity market
One platform, from the source of renewable energy generation, through to the meter reading and settled invoice.
Built in Cape Town and used nationally by property portfolios, metering companies, power producers and licensed energy traders.
Who We Serve
Property Owners & Managers
See every electricity and water meter across your portfolio in one place. Bill tenants, collect revenue and reconcile against your bulk account, in the way your business already operates.
REITs and large power users
Get wheeling ready: know your load, source the right private generation, and pass the benefit through to each tenant's sub-meter. Then track wheeled energy against your contract and your utility bills.
IPPs and licensed traders
Design. Model. Price. Propose.
Allocate, reconcile and settle wheeled energy every month, no spreadsheets required. Smart metering at your plants and buyer sites delivers data you can settle on.
Metering companies
Run your metering business on our software, under your own brand. Meter data management, billing and revenue collection as a service, without building a software team.
From the meter, to the market
Most companies run metering in one system and energy contracts in another, with spreadsheets in between. Switch joins them. The same verified meter data that bills a tenant also allocates wheeled energy to a building, reconciles it against the utility account and settles it with the generator. This may sound like a distant future, but business are doing this today, and we enable this.
Property portfolios: get wheeling ready
Buying renewable energy across the grid starts well before you sign with a generator or trader. Three things need to be in place.
-
Know your load profile
Metered data for every building, showing how much energy you use and when.
2. Source generation
Match your load against solar, wind or a mix, and compare offers on real numbers.
3) Pass benefits to tenants
Allocate wheeled energy and its savings down to each tenant's sub-meter.
At the Port of Durban, Transnet National Ports Authority uses Switch to track bulk utility supply, monitor water pressure, and reconcile sub-meter usage for billing and reporting.
