Peec Energy works on a proven model of offering remote monitoring and metering for solar mini-grids and pay- as- you -go solar home systems (SHS). It offers PAYG meters to local mini-grid developers to allow them to sell energy in off-grid locations and to remotely monitor their utility assets and collect bill payments via a central software.

Peec Energy generates revenue from hardware sales as well as software subscriptions paid by the energy suppliers (Solar companies, mini-grid developers and Pay-As-You-Go solar contractors).
