BACKGROUND


ALWAYS PAMOJA: We are one global team with one dream


ZOLA Electric was born in and around the Serengeti in Tanzania, initially installing smart, connected devices (batteries and solar) that powered basic energy needs such as lighting for rural communities. Our theory that thousands of networked, connected devices will form the basic architecture of energy provision in emerging markets holds true today. ZOLA doesn’t design and enable discrete products, we design network technology which is used across the globe in over 10 countries by our Integrator customers building, managing and optimizing distributed energy networks. ZOLA combines the power of a family of hardware products with an operating system, Vision, into the leading distributed energy platform on the planet.


Our diverse team at ZOLA Electric, dispersed across 4 continents and 13+ different nationalities, share a common vision and commitment to solving the Energy Access challenge that afflicts over 3 billion people and hundreds of millions of businesses globally. This is one of the world's great problems, impacting our most vulnerable and driving inequality across income, healthcare, education and climate change. As one of us, you are equally passionate about making an impact as you are creating the technologies that will eradicate Energy Inequality.


ZOLA is partnered with the world’s leading energy companies and investors, including Tesla, EDF, Total, Lyndon and Pete Rive, DBL, Helios Partners and Electron Capital. Today we are proud to say that our network delivers reliable, affordable, clean and smart power to almost 3 million people and businesses across four continents….and this is only the beginning.
