Power Ledger

Powerledger is a cryptocurrency-based energy trading platform. The founder built it on the Ethereum blockchain and a consortium blockchain developed by Powerledger. It enables individuals and businesses to track and exchange energy, flexibility services, and environmental commodities.

Energy trade is democratised by using the Powerledger Coin (POWR), a native currency. Users can buy/sell energy tokens in a peer-to-peer (P2P) system based on their requirements or excess energy capacity.

Dr. Jemma Green is Powerledger’s co-founder and executive chairman.

• Powerledger utilises the peer-to-peer nature of the underlying blockchain to enable the frictionless transfer of energy tokens, environmental commodities trade, and renewable asset ownership.

• Users may use Powerledger to purchase and sell surplus electric capacity generated by solar roof panels in real-time, and they will get the native POWR token for their efforts.

• Three of Powerledger’s significant initiatives are VPP 2.0, a market for surplus battery capacity, xGrid energy from solar panels, and uGrid, a market for commercial building solar power spare capacity.

• Powerledger facilitates the trade of environmental commodities, increasing the transparency and traceability of commodity and renewable energy credits exchanges.

• Additionally, Powerledger has established a framework for renewable asset ownership in which families get rewards for acquiring renewable energy sources.

Powerledger’s future is bright since it serves a well-defined industry that justifies its applications. Currently, there is no better solution in energy distribution and the peer-to-peer energy industry than the POWR blockchain and its smart contract. So, many analysts expect Powerledger to have a prosperous future. That makes Powerledger Coin a promising cryptocurrency.

• Buy and sell energy tokens: The platform enables users to buy/sell energy tokens peer-to-peer depending on their energy demands or spare capacity.

• Trade: Powerledger Coins can be held for trading purposes.

• Exchange different cryptocurrencies and fiat currencies:  Users may swap Powerledger Coins for various cryptocurrencies and fiat currencies via a variety of cryptocurrency exchanges such as CoinSwitch.

• Powerledger enables the increasing market of residential energy suppliers by providing them control over the use of their surplus energy.

• Because it acts as a mediator between the user and the electric provider (or the state), the legal and administrative aspects of the transaction are handled automatically, allowing consumers to purchase and sell energy with relative ease.

• Since energy is a closely regulated sector, power ledger may not be legal or acceptable in most regions.
