The Launch of the Energy Protocol

This open standard languish enable intelligent Energy Sharing, Smart Micro Grids can communicate, cooperate, and transact energy inside, with other Smart Micro Grids but also interacting with the traditional Grid. Creating the foundation for a truly interoperable, global energy network. Like the birth of the Internet’s open protocols, this moment marks the start of a new era in distributed, resilient, and democratic energy systems.
