TL;DR: SEI is purchasing and retiring Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) using the Jasmine Energy platform to power the SEI Blockchain 100% with renewable energy.

Jasmine Energy and the SEI Foundation have partnered to launch the first sustainable blockchain powered entirely by renewable energy.

Starting today SEI will integrate Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) from the Jasmine Energy platform to guarantee that every unit of energy consumed by the SEI Blockchain is sourced exclusively from renewable sources. This strategic alliance underscores a shared commitment to championing sustainable practices and driving positive environmental impact within the blockchain and climate industries.

At the heart of this collaboration is the SEI Foundation’s dedicated grant, committed to financing the acquisition and retirement of Renewable Energy Credits (RECs). For each Megawatt-hour (MWh) of energy utilized by the SEI Blockchain, the SEI Foundation will procure and retire at least 1MWh of Green-e Certified RECs — an industry gold standard, epitomizing corporate-grade excellence.

Using Jasmine Energy’s tokenized RECs provides an unambiguous and traceable lineage of ownership from specific energy generators to consumers within the SEI Blockchain. The adoption of these RECs not only reflects SEI’s unwavering dedication to sustainable energy practices but also empowers the wider community to actively contribute to expediting the green transition.

SEI’s selection of Jasmine Energy as its renewable energy partner positions the blockchain industry as a trailblazer in fostering positive environmental change. We anticipate the transformative impact of this collaboration and eagerly anticipate a future where technological innovation and sustainability coalesce seamlessly.
