I happened to find another project based on Ethereum named SunContract which sort of tries to decentralized the energy markets. Here is the link to the ANN:

Exciting to see how things will unfold for this project.
Topic: Energy Sector Turns to Ethereum to Test Blockchain (Read 185 times)
"There's really a lack of specificity and understanding of what the use cases are."
Jesse Morris, a principal at the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), is a little critical of the discussions around blockchain technology trials in the energy sector. While plenty of companies have discussed the technology, outside of a handful of pilots, the use cases and their benefits have been vague, he argued.
To tackle that challenge, the RMI, a Colorado-based non-profit advocacy group for green energy, has established the Energy Web Foundation (EWF) in partnership with Grid Singularity, a Vienna-based blockchain startup. The foundation aims to foster blockchain projects in the energy sector for commercial deployment.

Do you think this can be a successful project?
