Thola

Thola is a web-based energy margin software platform for high-load commercial and industrial sites that helps you see when electricity costs are eroding profit and take targeted actions to recover and reduce those costs. It models your site’s energy load to identify peak-cost operating periods and equipment driving those costs, recommends a dynamic Energy Premium surcharge during high-demand windows, and provides real-time visibility and guidance for load shifting and energy upgrades.

Thola operates primarily in Africa, with Thola Energy headquartered in Sandton, Gauteng, South Africa and focused on industrial and commercial infrastructure across African markets. It serves a range of sites including factories, mining operations, university campuses, hospitals, and smaller commercial venues such as coffee shops and guest houses in Africa.

You can start by visiting the Thola website and following the prompts to learn more about the platform and request access or a demo for your site. If a direct sign up option is not visible, you can reach out via the listed contact details to set up onboarding.

Thola is available as a web-based platform. There is no information indicating a dedicated mobile app, so you would access it through a web browser.

Thola is best suited for energy-intensive commercial and industrial businesses that face recurring utility pressure and need to manage peak energy costs, such as restaurants, coffee shops, laundromats, gyms, grocery stores, salons, commercial kitchens, factories, mining operations, university campuses, hospitals, and similar high-load sites.
