CarbonEnfo ® Partners with Energy Web to Unlock the Value of Solar Energy Data
CarbonEnfo, a wholly owned subsidiary of Atlanta-based Empower Energy Technology, will leverage Energy Web’s ecosystem and Web 3 infrastructure solutions to develop and launch a range of blockchain-enabled energy data services
Zug, Switzerland, 21 September 2023— CarbonEnfo, a wholly owned subsidiary of Atlanta-based Empower Energy Technology, a leader in direct generation solar as well as renewable energy measurement/management, has joined the Energy Web Foundation’s established ecosystem of energy majors and IT service providers by validating Energy Web’s decentralized operating system.
The move comes as CarbonEnfo seeks to extend its expertise in renewable energy data by developing and launching a range of enterprise and consumer-facing solutions for the U.S. market. Last year, utility-scale U.S. solar installations rebounded from COVID-driven supply chain issues and a record 700,000 U.S. homeowners installed rooftop solar systems, a 40% jump from 2021(Solar Energy Industries Association).
