[ANN][POWR][UPDATE] *** POWER LEDGER TOKEN SALE STARTS FRIDAY 8TH SEPTEMBER ***

[Isle of Groestl]

Hello everyone, I have been trying to do as much reading as I can about POWR, I love the concept of this project (one of the only coins I invested in not because I want some big profit but because I truly like the idea and want to support the project itself) came across this post, and the few people that quoted it couldnt really address it so figured Id post it here and see if anyone can answer this.

One thing to add, he says he has concerns with how it will function in real life. Isnt it already functioning in real life? Isnt it already in operation in certain sectors?

If this is something that has been done 1000 times I apologize. Also if this is ignorant based on not understanding the project well enough I also apologize. Just interested in seeing a rebuttal to this.


---------
I got in on the ICO at the last minute after getting caught up in the hype. But I have sold all my tokens now. After really looking into it I have some concerns about how it will function in the real life. Say that you (Defc0de) decide to put in extra solar panels with the intent to sell me the extra electricity you generate. The increased cost for you to add solar panels is not that significant if you are already doing the install. But how are you getting me the power? And how are we going to monitor it? I read that they plan to use the existing backbone infrastructure of utility companies but I do not see how that is really feasible. What incentive does an electric company have to provide you and I to use their lines between our homes at a reduced cost when they can make plenty of money the way things are. One option is if we live next door, you could run a line between our homes, and install a meter to monitor my consumption. But then there are lots of issues that could creep up going forward ? do we both have to check it on a regular basis and input it into PL?s system. Do we both have to upgrade our service panels to wireless, and then make sure it is always communicating with the internet. I just do not see how it works in real life. And then if we do work out all the issues, will the numbers really work out so it makes sense? I have lots more questions. It is a cool idea.

Thank you for your time

Hold on now, you're gonna shit your pants -  

In the future, electricity will be the new form of currency:
POWR is backed up by Electricity -
Q:What other crypto-currency is backed up by a Utility?
A: None but POWR.

 

Electricity has been currency to electric companies, now the people will earn from Electricity.
Power Ledger leads the way.

what happend to this coin, why does the price rise a little while other coins rocketing? i wished to see the performance on November again

[incetivepro]

This is a very good project with an excellent team. And of course he has already started his full-fledged work, in contrast to hundreds of tokens which are not than not provided. I believe that the price of $ 5 in the near future is more than real. Does someone disagree with me? I want to hear your opinion.

Agree (+1)
$5-$10 in short term

$5 will be nice achievement for this project I think majority of the people will keep hodl this for long term because by the end of next year it will be above $50 with this growth rate.

Enjoy nice pump

Changelly is delighted to list this popular token, so our many users can trade it on our exchange and get involved in this exciting project.”

I know the powr is an ICO project that focus on energy distribution. Also, I know some similar projects such as suncontract, TSL, I just want to know what are the advantages over them.

Rather than being a disingenuous leach, do the homework yourself, and bring back information.    

Have you ever thought of actually adding value to the discussion?

The only reason why I joined and logged on is to tell you what a jerk you are Isle of Groestl. You must have had a rough childhood.

SNC will have a working product early 2018 which imo gives them an advantage in terms of timing. They are also partnered with a large energy company in Slovenia if I recall correctly.

Power has a great team and lots of big named funding like government. They will have a working product in 2019 I think. They are also very skilled at marketing and very active with social media.

I don't know enough about TSL to comment but both SNC and POWR are great tokens to invest in. No need to only pick one, they are working in different areas geographically and both have great teams.

Do not forget grid+ , a energy company from consensys with a working product and super professional team that currently focused on texas market.

hmmm Slovenia.. versus Australia+China+Thailand+New Zealand.. tough choice haha.

great day for new investors to grab some power in the current dip I just traded in all my Ripple for Power! My 2 sisters and mum both grabbed some at Aud 89c and have seen it go to Aud$1.72 within a couple of weeks.

go team!

yes, powr has not pumped much recently, it still has a huge potential which we can expect more, just not let poverty limits our imagination

[JayFKay]

wow after the dust has settled from whales clearing out their profits from the entire crypto industry I see Power Ledger is momentarily sitting at the bargain price of U.S. 90c!
Just bought another 2000 thank you!

So I've just been doing a little research subsequent to Power Ledger signing contracts to start trials in Thailand. An article on their facebook says

"The price would be 10-15% cheaper than what they are. currently paying to the Metropolitan Electricity Authority."

So I checked and Thai people currently enjoy electricity prices of US$0.6 - 0.13c per kilowatt hour.

Here is just the countries globally just from A-D who pay as much or much more than Thailand per kilowatt hour.. how much can power save them/us!

America
American Samoa
Argentina (parts not enjoying govt subsidies)
Australia (double the prices)
Belarus
Belgium (double to triple)
Bulgaria
Brazil
Cambodia
Canada, Ontario
Chile (paying double+)
Colombia
Croatia
Curacao
Denmark (paying double to triple)

I won't bore everyone by listing 168 countries but this gives you some insight into how far reaching power will be.

Do yourself and the planet a favour.. trade in your clunky old coal powered Chinese mined bitcoin and get with the sunny future!

My take on this GEM..  Ready to move up!
If you are not in POWR, this seems to be a good entry!

If your not in now for sure this is a good place to start, POWR team is not pumping and fans do not try to pump, the team really is working on its real application and it will be pumped by the whales-not the supporters.

I guess that, Powr looking like it's ready to take a big run pretty soon so definitely get into it! You guys don't think twice, I'm in from the begining, great project and great team. Purchase whenever have a good amount of money in hand especially at the dip and will buy more!

[JayFKay]

Yes great time to buy POWR in this dip and Power Ledger has just been added to the TDAX exchange - so hello and welcome to everyone joining us from the Thailand region!

Please enjoy a clean and renewable Solar+battery future with POWR's microgrid technology and their fantastic ledger on the blockchain. Not to mention cheaper peer to peer electricity from this 'Airbnb of Electricity!'

Now is the time to trade in all the clunky old bitcoin that's mined in coal fire-powered backed factories in Places like China and even on powerful rigs in first world countries like Australia still using coal. Here is our chance to get ahead of non-progressive governments and out of date energy companies and teach them how serious and determined we the public all are about fighting and abating climate change.

Renewable Energy Trading Comes to Thailand – Power Ledger and BCPG Setting the Pace



Thailand is seeking to improve its electricity production by leveraging solar energy and blockchain technology. Thai-backed BCPG will work with Power Ledger to make this happen.

Renewable energy developers BCPG and Power Ledger have announced plans to introduce peer-to-peer renewable energy trading in Thailand. Solar energy will be at the heart of this undertaking, and it is set to revolutionize electricity production in the country and, hopefully, South East Asia.
