Crypto Backed by Renewable Energy

[MCRyan]

I am curious what everyone on this forum thinks about backing a cryptocurrency with green energy?

Has this been done before?

These guys are taking a stab at it: http://genercoin.io/

The concept of DeKo as a unit of work is pretty intriguing.

How about other commodities? I know there is a push right now to put real, tangible assets behind new cryptos.
