14 Market Routes

Routes Overview

Every market EDMA supports runs on the same principle: evidence is the gate to settlement. We call each path from proof → asset → settlement a Route. Routes define what gets verified, who signs it, and how value moves once proof exists.

Some routes focus on energy (generation, certificates, 24/7 matching). Others cover carbon (reforestation, avoided loss, methane, removals). And as the same logic applies beyond energy and climate, Routes also extend into commodities, real estate, efficiency, and high-value goods.

Together, these 14 of all the Routes that show how EDMA can serve as a single rail where verified reality becomes the settlement standard.
