Enosi Uses the Blockchain to Provide Affordable Clean Electricity to All, via a Decentralized Energy Grid

The Enosi blockchain challenges incumbent energy companies by
enabling small energy retailers to compete through aggregation, reduced
transaction,compliance costs and encouraging transparency

SYDNEY–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#blockchain—The
Enosi Foundation (https://enosi.io/) announces today the launch of
its open source, not-for-profit, blockchain based energy operating
system, to challenge large energy companies with existing regulatory
regimes, making the green energy space more efficient and transparent.
Enosi levels the playing field in electricity retailing, thereby
enabling communities, small businesses and startups to focus on value
added clean energy.

Enosi has secured partnerships and agreements with various energy
retailers and players in the industry including, California Clean Energy
Foundation, Energy Locals, DC Power, Solar Analytics, Australian
Photovoltaic Institute, and signed a cooperative research agreement with
the University of New South Wales.

Electricity is the bedrock of modern day civilization, from cooking our
food and heating our homes, to education and entertainment. However,
there are problems associated with the energy sector, such as the rising
costs and increased air pollution. To provide for the worldÔÇÖs growing
energy demand, which underpins societal and technological progress, the
Enosi Foundation has created a reliable and sustainable energy system
for everyone. EnosiÔÇÖs blockchain platform supports a new decentralised
paradigm that alters the way we generate, transport, store and sell
electricity.

Enosi transforms the energy market using the blockchain through a
trusted and tokenized transaction platform. By commoditizing the
components of the energy supply chain, broadening competition, and
reducing barriers for entry, Enosi overcomes the inherent barriers to
competition in the decentralised trading of renewable energy. This will
lead to significantly lower costs in the sector. Enosi is opening up
green energy adoption to the masses through community energy schemes
where consumers are in control of their local electricity production and
use..

EnosiÔÇÖs open source blockchain operating system offers a variety of
features to reduce costs and obstacles in the green energy market:

• Enabling competition – Increasing competition within each
  segment of the supply chain by building a platform and providing tools
  that enable new entrants to participate in the market
• Disaggregation – Separation of each segment in the electricity
  supply chain to allow the entry of more efficient market participants
• Reducing regulations hurdles – Lowering the regulatory and
  establishment hurdles for new market entrants by providing a suite of
  automated ÔÇ£retailer-in-a-boxÔÇØ tools, adaptable for each region
• Significantly lowering customer servicing costs – Lowering the
  overall cost for new energy retailers by partially automating the
  market procurement, settlement and compliance functions
• Enabling new innovative technologies to monetize – Enabling new
  energy retailers (neo-retailers) to provide innovative electricity
  supply and billing arrangements for communities and niche market
  segments

ÔÇ£WeÔÇÖve seen what treating the energy space as a monopoly can do to
decentralised energy trading and sustainable energy,ÔÇØ said Steve Hoy,
CEO of Enosi, ÔÇ£The sector is inundated with outdated and heavily
regulated practices, which are met with minimal competition and
innovation. Enosi will change all of that. The electricity industry is
ripe for disruption, and EnosiÔÇÖs new approach to support green community
energy will bring about the much needed change that the industry's been
waiting for.ÔÇØ
