TECH AND INNOVATION: SA energy startup Wetility launched to smooth access
Loading player...
Wetility has developed a suite integrated smart energy solutions designed to provide customers with a personalised 360 experience. We-X is an easy-to-use digital platform that intelligently enables users to stay connected with remote monitoring and instant alerts, while the PACE device is intelligently designed to control the energy flow to homes and businesses.
With very few South Africans able to access solar power owing to expensive upfront installation costs and, at times, a confusing market, Wetility is looking to shift this with its approach to pricing and technology.
As part of its Pay at Pace solution, the company can install hybrid rooftop solar systems on homes – which includes solar panels as well as its hi-tech PACE device – at no upfront cost to homeowners. Homeowners then receive always-on power from these systems via an affordable monthly lease or power purchase agreement.
