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 and connectivity for rural communities.

ZOLA today empowers Energy Service providers to grow, sustain and finance their operations through our ZOLA technology platform, enabling our enterprise customers to deliver reliable and affordable power to their communities, improving the lives of the 3 billion people across the globe that need it the most. Our technology platform consists of a hardware layer, control layer and Ai enabled SaaS application layer, ZOLA Intelligence (ZI). Today we are proud to say that our network delivers reliable, affordable and smart power to over 3 million people and commercial facilities across over 10 countries and 4 continents. We have a bold vision and mission, and we are only just beginning.

You need to be passionate about bringing energy technology to the Global South with the unique social, technical, and business challenges that come along with it. You are inspired by the opportunity to unleash human potential, and motivated to help build a truly epic business.
