this project can become anything more then a dream! simply because dealing with energy providers world wide will simply laugh at this idea !good luck
Hi,
Your skepticism is very valid, since the energy sector is very much regulated/controlled and disruption takes time, since we are talking about ownership and technical restrictions of physical generation assets, networks/grids etc.
Pylon Network is implemented in partnership with renewable energy cooperatives in Spain and Europe. As electricity suppliers to their members/customers, energy cooperatives becomes our first link to the European energy market and the European electricity consumer.
However, Pylon Network is designed as an open-source tool for cooperation between all players of the energy market. This means that once our platform is demonstrated in partnership with energy cooperatives in Europe (our demonstration partners are GoiEner from the Basque country in Spain) any player who wishes, will be able to integrate their operation on Pylon Network, potentially with no cost.
By taking out the commercial exploitation from the core operation of the platform and adding all benefits of blockchain (trust, transparency, traceability) is how Pylon Network aims to expand to more players who want (or are committed/obliged) to make their operation more efficient and green.
Necessary condition for a future adoption by many players/markets is the demonstration of the benefits of our blockchain algorithm (i.e. scalability potential & green mining consumption), which we will validate through the later stages of Pylon demonstration.
It won't happen within a day. It is a long process and has been longer than it should. Our only aim is to accelerate it and the more the better..
