“Ethical Markets is a partner with Solar Coin and we are happy to post this report on the progress of this new currency, which rewards anyone in the world who successfully captures free photons from the SUN to produce electricity.  This currency has real-world backing in MW hours, unlike most other new cryptocurrencies (which use huge amounts of fossilized electricity and computer power)  and therefore, steers us toward the cleaner, greener, knowledge-richer economies of the Solar Age.       ~Hazel Henderson,  Editor”

Enphase Inverter logs solar production data to SolarCoin Blockchain – video

ElectriCChain has tested a Raspberry-Pi3 full node solar Datalogger streaming SolarCoins based on production data from an Enphase inverter and API on a rooftop solar system located in England. Why ? Because now production data can go straight to the Blockchain to become immutable in a minimum number of steps. This reduces the risk of attack vectors on the distributed IoT.

Sunburning your solar charge into batteries using the SolarCoin Blockchain/DAG’s

This post is about a small side-project that Solcrypto has been working on for 6-months. Essentially it is a way to burn the amount of charge you have stored into a battery that is transportable, and shareable with others by using an immutable blockchain. It works in the solar off-grid world.
