Year founded
Zenco is a KwaZulu-Natal based smart metering company operating across South Africa — smart electricity and water metering, prepaid vending, AMI and data collection for housing, factories, mines and shopping centres.
Founded in 2023, Zenco is a South African smart metering and energy services company headquartered in KwaZulu-Natal, delivering projects to clients across the country. We design, install, commission and manage prepaid and smart metering systems that give property owners accurate billing, real-time visibility and reliable revenue collection.
In a short space of time we have become a trusted, hands-on partner with over 500 meters installed and commissioned on live infrastructure — with teams on site every week across housing, industry, mining and retail. One accountable partner handles the full lifecycle, from supply and installation to vending and ongoing data.
Residential complexes and estates — prepaid sub-metering, tenant billing and revenue management that keep utilities fair and cash flow predictable.
Industrial plants and factories — accurate consumption measurement, sub-metering and load visibility to control cost across the site.
Mining operations, including active work on the Rustenburg mines — robust metering for mine housing and industrial infrastructure.
Retail centres and malls — tenant sub-metering, prepaid vending and centralised data collection so landlords recover every unit.
Supply, installation and commissioning of smart electricity meters — accurate, tamper-aware and built for remote management, from single connections to full metering banks.
Smart and prepaid water meters for accurate consumption measurement, leak awareness and fair tenant billing across estates and commercial properties.
End-to-end prepaid vending setup and support. Occupants buy electricity and water tokens easily, while owners collect revenue upfront and eliminate arrears.
Advanced Metering Infrastructure — connected networks that communicate automatically for remote reads, remote management and a scalable smart-metering backbone.
Automated meter data collection, consolidation and reporting — turning raw reads into clean billing data and clear consumption insight for property managers.
We assess the site, confirm the metering layout and specify the right solution.
Meters, vending and comms modules installed, wired and commissioned on live infrastructure.
Prepaid vending set up and accounts linked so occupants buy and owners collect from day one.
Ongoing data collection, reporting and support to keep the system accurate and revenue flowing.
Every installation is delivered and tested on site — a snapshot of active Zenco projects keeping our teams on the ground across the country.
