I wrote an article about WePower, I'm very inspired by the idea of the project. The idea of this project is so good that I would hope that in my city sometime will sell energy for the tokens. I hope I find these times.

Dear all,
The closer to the token sale we get, the more people will probably try to take advantage of our name. We are fighting with this all ways we can, but, community, we need your help!
We are extremely THANKFUL for everyone who reports suspicious activity noticed around WePower’s or any of team member’s name!
If you are reading this message, please, make sure that people in your network knows that fraud attempts are real, they can look very sophisticated and can happen to everyone of us.

WePower takes its blockchain-powered green energy platform to Australia

https://venturebeat.com/2017/12/21/wepower-takes-its-blockchain-powered-green-energy-platform-to-australia/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+venturebeat%2FSZYF+%28VentureBeat%29


A comprehensive study by the Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) shows that the U.S. can generate most of its electricity from renewable energy by 2050. The Renewable Electricity Futures Study found that an 80 percent renewables future is feasible with currently available technologies.

It’s a similar story in Europe and elsewhere in the world. But in order for this to happen, the right policies need to be put in place. Enter blockchain technology, which is seemingly able to disrupt almost every industry and promises to provide a decentralized mechanism for driving green energy adoption.

WePower is an energy trading platform that aims to finance the development of green energy projects and inject additional renewable power into the grid. While initially focused on Europe, WePower has announced that it will expand operations into Australia via acceptance into StartupBootcamp.......

Hello and thank you for your support and kind words If you have any bounty-related questions, or you decide to join it you can go here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-20ico-wepower-first-global-blockchain-for-green-energy-ended-2537413.

Hi, community! Recently the TreeHugger, the leading media outlet dedicated to driving sustainability mainstream featured WePower. https://www.treehugger.com/green-investments/forget-bitcoins-invest-green-renewable-energy-wepower-tokens.html


In publication dedicated to introduce WePower's solution for sustainable future, journalist Lloyd Alter suggested a few questions we would like to answer:

1.Question: What happens if the producer selling the token doesn't deliver the power. Is the token then worthless?
Answer: If a person holds the Contract for energy delivery, Energy will always be delivered to him, WePower will take care of that according to the legal framework guarding energy delivery.


2.Question: Who is paying the cost of running and verifying the blockchain, which still uses a lot of energy on the Etherium platform?
Answer: Contracting parties are paying for the verifications today, but WePower is looking to be launched with Proof of stake Blockchain in mind where customers would not be paying for their transactions.

3.Question: Is the value of the energy needed to run the blockchain is greater than the commissions one would pay if this was just an investment fund?
Answer: There a number of important added values in running WePower on blockchain. First of all, it all allows to standardise Power Purchase Agreements in a form of Smart Contracts and in this way open an opportunity for green energy project developers to raise capital globally with much less complexity than they currently have to go through. Another important value of blockchain is that as an open ledger it provides a transparent green energy production accounting, which adds an additional incentive to Green Energy buyers because they can trust that the energy they actually comes from renewable resources. The value of blockchain and platform-driven approach to green energy funding stems beyond the savings on commissions. It's really a new approach to green energy financing.

4.Question: Is the CO2 produced by the blockchain is greater than the CO2 saved by the renewable investment? Perhaps it runs on green power.
Answer: This is a great observation. Blockchain by itself does not produce CO2. It requires substantial energy resources to run and just like all of our energy production in majority of cases still comes from the "dirty" energy sources, such as coal. Green energy production costs are dropping every year. The Sun delivers more energy to Earth in an hour than we use in a year. Blockchain technology is still in it's early stages and there are a number of ideas on how to make it more cost effective. Clearly, driving green energy adoption and running increasingly more of the computing resources required for blockchain on green energy could be a strong step forwards.

nice article
and nice project - im supporting it1

It makes me happy that the energy ico's going out.Because the power ledger has achieved a very good success.I was thinking about entering to the its twitter bounty. However; 1.5% will be allocated to the Bounty Program. But the total amount of WPR markers will not exceed $ 525,000.It says it will not exceed 1.5% bounty = 525,000 dollar. 5% is reserved for twitter. So twitter bounty will be paid up to 26,250 dollars.391 people joined to this bounty.26.250 / 391 = $ 67 is the maximum amount to be received.It is good that they stated the maximum amount they will give.Thank you, they really do. We enter some bounties that gives around 20 cent, 20 dollars.But 67 dollars is not very satisfactory either.Because of that, I will not go into twitter bounty. But if the project sees enough support, I can get a token.

Nice! 👍  WePower is featured by one of the most important publications in the tech space!

5 Upcoming ICOs Of 2018 With “Real-Life” Use Cases (WePower, Covesting, Sirin Labs, Cryogen & Zenome)

After IOTA‘s success, it seems that more and more people in the crypto community are trying to find blockchain based solutions that have some sort of an impact on our everyday physical reality. As you already know I am not a big fan of “Bitcoin and Forks” for the simple reason that is: they literally give you nothing more than “thin air” in exchange for your hard-earned money. I compiled a list of five (5) upcoming ICOs based on real-life use cases.

Now I know that there are tons of new ICOs out there and you might not find your favorite on the list, but you should understand that I am not saying that these specific five ICOs are “the best” or “the coolest” or the ones that might climb to the big top 10. These are just my personal choices compiled according to my fascination with technology and scientific progression

Hello, you are right, there are many projects that are focusing on green energy, and that is fantastic! But WePower is different from them. You can find a detailed explanation here https://medium.com/wepower/wepowers-position-in-the-new-energy-landscape-e1da5aa5439a. I hope this helps you. If you have any more questions feel free to ask

As far as I know, many projects are focus on the energy distribution, such as the powr, tsl and so on, I think they should have some difference, is any clear compare?

Thank you for the kind words and support! If you haven't had the chance to join, please check out the WePower Telegram group: https://t.me/WePowerNetwork

On 12th of December 2017, the President of the French Republic Emmanuel Macron, the President of the World Bank Group, Jim Yong Kim, Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres together with other world leaders and influencers like Bill Gates and Richard Branson gathered in the One Planet summit to discuss our progress in the fight against Climate Change.

One of the highlighted problems was the funding of renewable energy.
In his article co-founder of WePower Arturas Asakavicius, who was participating in One Planet summit as well, reminds how WePower is about to solve green energy funding problems:
