About Us

We turn climate data into competitive advantage

ClimaVista Analytics is a Nairobi-based data analytics company built by a team of young Kenyan engineers, data scientists, and climate specialists. We exist at the intersection of data science and Africa's clean energy transition.

We build data platforms, analytical tools, and AI-powered products that help businesses understand their environmental and energy footprints β€” and act on that understanding. From industrial energy optimisation to climate risk modelling, our work is grounded in rigorous data and designed for real-world impact.

Services

What We Do

From raw sensor data to boardroom-ready insight β€” our services span the full analytics value chain for climate and energy.

01 β€”
⚑

Energy Data Analytics

We collect, clean, and analyse energy consumption data at machine level. We uncover inefficiencies, model demand patterns, and quantify savings potential across commercial and industrial facilities.

02 β€”
🧠

AI & ML Forecasting

Our ML engineers build custom time-series forecasting models for energy demand, load prediction, and weather-adjusted consumption β€” tailored to each client's operational context.

03 β€”
🌑️

Climate Risk Modelling

We help organisations understand physical and transition climate risks through scenario analysis and TCFD-aligned reporting frameworks adapted for the East African context.

04 β€”
πŸ“‘

IoT & Sensor Data Integration

We design and deploy low-cost IoT sub-metering infrastructure that feeds live data into our analytics stack, creating digital twins of industrial facilities and enabling real-time monitoring.

05 β€”
πŸ“‹

MRV & Reporting Systems

We build automated Measurement, Reporting & Verification systems for carbon and energy savings, designed for donor compliance, carbon market certification, and regulatory reporting.

06 β€”
πŸ—ΊοΈ

Policy & Strategy Analytics

We partner with governments and development organisations to provide data analysis and modelling that informs energy and climate policy β€” from national strategies to city-level planning.

Our Impact

Why It Matters

Our analytics work delivers a triple dividend β€” commercial value for businesses, grid stability for utilities, and environmental benefit for Kenya.

🏭

For Industry

Factories gain granular visibility into energy use for the first time and a clear, data-backed pathway to slashing electricity bills by up to 30% β€” without touching production targets.

πŸ”‹

For the Grid

By flattening industrial demand peaks, our clients become Virtual Power Plants β€” absorbing surplus renewable generation and reducing grid stress during peak hours.

🌿

For the Climate

Increased utilisation of Kenya's idle renewable capacity reduces the dispatch of carbon-intensive thermal peaker plants β€” cutting emissions while keeping the lights on.
