SWITCH

Share Your Energy

Energy and water data you can trust

Switch connects the meters, data and software behind energy and water management, so property portfolios, traders, generators and large power users can see what they use, bill it accurately and move energy with confidence.

One connected system

Three products that work on their own and better together

Product 01

Smart Metering

Electricity and water meters at your sites, installed by our network of accredited partners and read remotely.

  • Live consumption and generation data

  • Alerts when a meter stops reporting

  • Prepaid and post-paid billing support

  • Your data, available any time

Product 02

Meter data management (MDMS)

One trusted record of every reading, from Switch meters, meters you already have, files and utility statements.

  • Every reading checked; gaps and errors flagged and corrected

  • Full audit trail of every change

  • Bill verification and forecasting

  • Validated data into your own systems

Product 03

Wheeling and trading platform

The tools to plan, run and settle wheeled energy across generators, customers and networks.

  • Portfolio planning and customer proposals

  • Allocation for maximum value

  • Reconciliation across national and municipal networks

  • Settlement statements and invoices

Built around the way you operate

Different businesses need different things from their energy and water data. Here is where Switch fits for each of them.

Property owners, managers and REITs

Accurate tenant billing for electricity and water across every building, with recovery that matches how you already invoice. As private energy is wheeled into your portfolio, Switch gets you wheeling ready: sourcing the right generation and passing the benefit through to each tenant's sub-meter. 

IPPs and licensed traders

Metering at your plants and customer sites, one clean dataset across every source, and a platform that plans deals, allocates generation to customers, reconciles network statements and settles each month. 

Metering companies

Our metering software under your own brand. Connect the meters you install, manage your clients' data and billing, and give them a console of their own. 

Large power users

Clear visibility of consumption across your sites, verified utility bills, and the data you need to buy and receive wheeled renewable energy with confidence. 

Municipalities and network operators

The meter data, reconciliation and settlement tools to run wheeling on your network, connected to the billing systems you already use.

Every meter, connected

Works with the meters and systems you already have

Switch reads the leading electricity and water meters used across Africa, over the networks that suit each site, and connects to the head-end and building systems already in place. Where something new is needed, our developers build the integration.

To the meter, and beyond

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. 

WHY SWITCH

A layer of truth you can build on

AI now makes it easy to build your own tools and analytics, and we embrace that. That freedom needs a foundation you can rely on: Switch keeps your data accurate, standards-compliant, secure and auditable, so whatever you build on top holds up.

Clarity from complexity

Readings, tariffs, allocations and network statements turned into clear numbers your finance team and your customers can trust.

Your data stays yours

Full access in the console or as a download, live data feeds into your own systems from the very first meter, and a complete export at no cost if you ever move on.

Built for African grids

Designed around international metering standards and the realities of African utilities, from national and municipal networks to private generation and wheeling, with support and installation partners where you operate.

Ready for what follows

Run Switch in our cloud or on your own servers, connect it to the tools you use, and adapt as energy markets, regulations and technology change.
