Key Roles of Blockchain in Edma

1. Transparency & Immutability

• All energy transactions are recorded on a public blockchain, ensuring full transparency and preventing fraud.

• Immutable records eliminate double-counting and manipulation of energy assets.

• Ensures trust among participants by providing tamper-proof energy tracking data.

2. Decentralized & Secure Transactions

• Eliminates the need for centralized intermediaries, reducing costs and improving efficiency.

• Uses cryptographic security mechanisms to protect energy asset ownership and transactions.

• Ensures real-time verification of energy production and trade.

3. Efficient Energy Tokenization

• Converts energy production data into Energy Tracking Tokens (ETT) and Clean Energy Coins (CLE).

• Provides real-time provenance data for tokenized energy assets.

• Enables seamless trading and liquidity in the decentralized marketplace.

Smart Contracts in Edma

1. Automated Execution & Compliance

• Smart contracts autonomously verify and execute transactions based on predefined rules.

• Automates token issuance, ownership transfers, and compliance tracking.

• Reduces reliance on manual processes and intermediaries, enhancing efficiency.

2. ESG Compliance & Certification

• Ensures automatic verification of sustainability claims through blockchain-backed records.

• Supports carbon credit issuance, Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), and Certificates of Origin.

• Integrates with AI-powered compliance monitoring to streamline reporting.

3. Decentralized Marketplace Operations

• Enables peer-to-peer energy trading, allowing direct interactions between producers and buyers.

• Facilitates secure, real-time settlements using blockchain-based smart contracts.

• Ensures pricing transparency through decentralized exchange mechanisms.

4. DeFi & Financial Applications

• Allows staking, lending, and borrowing of energy-backed assets through decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols.

• Provides liquidity for tokenized energy, making it a viable financial asset.

• Supports yield farming and incentive mechanisms to reward energy producers and investors.
