Energy Data and Intelligence System for Off-grid Networks
Edison is a data platform with automated daily posts of data from market participants in off-grid electrification programmes. Edison offers customised dashboards, visualisations and access to data for three primary services:
Data and monitoring platform
for off-grid electrification programmes
Market intelligence
for the off-grid industry
Data and knowledge provider
for policy-makers and public purpose data-users
What can data do for market development in off-grid electrification?
If properly mined and analyzed, data can improve the understanding of human behavior and offer policymaking support for global development in three ways:
Challenge approaches
Challenge or confirm conventional wisdom on the most effective approaches to energy development
Build trust
Increased (reliable) collection and use of data to build trust in potential donors, investors and other market participants
Provide awareness
Provide situational awareness to other development actors to increase their ability to respond to changing situations

Our mission
Custom-built by the Renewable Energy and Energy Partnership (REEEP), Edison harnesses the power of data and sophisticated analytics to build sustainable markets for renewable energy and energy efficient solutions; advance energy access, improve lives and economic opportunities; and reduce climate and environmental damage.
An independent verification of Edison's monitoring of energy service subscriptions under the Beyond the Grid Fund for Zambia confirmed that 100% of customers interviewed had a verified product or energy service purchase.
