ZERO CARBON

TACKLING CLIMATE CHANGE USING BLOCKCHAIN

ABOUT ZERO CARBON
The Zero Carbon Project has 2 parts:

  1. deliver energy at a lower price than existing renewable and fossil fuel energy contracts; and
  2. to entice people to use the Zero Carbon Project, provide a blockchain-driven incentive scheme to reward consumers for engaging with the Zero Carbon Project and encourage consumer action.

The first part of our solution consists of a competitive ‘Zero Carbon Market’ which provides consumers access to cheaper energy contracts where the carbon emissions have been offset by international carbon credits.

Secondly, our blockchain economy is based on Energis tokens that have been designed to capture the future value that customers receive form our Market. This is enabled using the distributed ledger, Ethereum smart contracts and crypto exchanges.

Energis tokens are underpinned by concrete value as energy suppliers must use them to pay their transaction fees for using our Market. Therefore, as our consumer base grows, the demand for Energis tokens increases, constrained by a fixed supply.

We intend that up to 70% of the transaction fees received by the Zero Carbon Project will be ‘recycled’ and provided to consumers as rewards for engaging with the Zero Carbon Project. Energy suppliers and consumers (“Customers”) can sell Energis tokens to other customers, including energy suppliers who purchase them to pay transaction fees. This is the Energis economic cycle.

WHAT PROBLEM ARE WE SOLVING?
Climate change poses catastrophic risks with uncertain timeframes.

Renewable energy technologies are responding well but they remain too expensive and so their impact on carbon emissions is slow.

Consumers are concerned about climate change but they continue to choose more affordable electricity generated from fossil fuels.

HOW ZERO CARBON MARKETS WORK
Suppliers of zero carbon energy can source from fossil fuels but pay a small premium to offset the carbon emissions using international carbon credits.

To cover the carbon offset premium in order to beat fossil fuel prices, our Market applies intense competition by attracting a wide range of suppliers to Market with their best zero carbon energy prices, tailored specifically to our consumers size, location and usage pattern.
  • Suppliers submit their best zero carbon energy offers
  • Offers are compared transparently using like-for-like comparisons, using an online switching system for households and an online reverse auction system for business.
  • Consumers select their preferred cheapest contract option across our Market.
  • The consumer completes the contract directly with the successful energy supplier.


HOW THE ENERGIS TOKEN ECONOMY WORKS
Energis tokens have been designed to be valuable in order to provide the catalyst for change and provide incentives for consumers to contribute towards tackling climate change.
Smart contracts have been deployed to the blockchain to manage the use and flow of Energis token transactions in the Energis economy.
