The UK’s First P2P Energy Trade on the Blockchain

We’re delighted to announce that last week we successfully executed the UK’s first ever peer-to-peer physical trade of energy on the blockchain at Hackney’s Banister House Estate in London, using our renewable energy trading platform!

As some of you may know, the aim of our London social housing project which is currently underway in collaboration with Repowering London, is to enable residents to benefit from local renewable energy sources and bring down their energy bills, with a view to working towards creating a fully empowered, almost self-sustaining community. This first trade is a HUGE milestone for us and testament to the team’s hard work so far in bringing this energy trading platform to life.

We are also very pleased to have been chosen as one of 15 from among 515 applicants for the Free Electrons global energy accelerator programme. We successfully moved through phase one in Lisbon which saw 30 startups whittled down to just 15 (we got through!) and will be heading over to Sydney for part 2 of the programme which starts in May.

It was a busy week for the team as our CEO Peter Davies also won “Best Pitch” at a Pitch Perfect event by Investor Connected which consisted of a panel of high profile judges from the likes of Albion Capital, Tech Ventures London, North Block Capital, RLC Ventures and The Foresight Group.
