ABOUT ELECTRA

## We're the pioneers of Smart Electricity.

From smart buildings to rural mini-grids, Electra helps energy providers of all kinds track power flows, detect issues instantly, track revenue, reduce wastage and energy theft, and make data-driven decisions. It's the go-to tool for IPPs, DisCos, and real estate teams looking to run efficient, resilient energy systems.

WHY NOW

## The grid is straining. The window is now.

Energy demand is rising, grids are strained, and data-driven systems are no longer optional, they're urgent.

WHY US

## Built where the grid is hardest.

We're not just building tools, we're shaping the future of energy in Africa. Our smart systems bridge the gap between outdated infrastructure and the continent's growing power needs.

We've tracked more than 5 million hours of electricity, sent out over 5,000 critical notifications, and the networks continue to improve with every asset we add to our platform.
