The Opportunity

Problem

Djiboutian manufacturers are hit with electricity tariffs of 0.25 USD/kWh—the highest in Africa—driving up production costs and eroding their competitiveness.

Solution

PowerTrackDJ lets manufacturers log daily energy usage via app or CSV upload and benchmarks it against industry peers and optimal levels adjusted for 0.25 USD/kWh. It flags inefficiencies with alerts and actionable fixes like machine tuning. Track ROI on changes over time with visual dashboards.
