We want to turn the energy market on its head, with a blockchain-driven decentralized energy community. We wanted to build a new kind of blockchain that is truly decentralized. Within our energy community, our customers validate the energy transactions and are rewarded for their contribution to the community. We want to achieve this whilst at the same time encourage people to buy green energy and also have solar installed to produce their own green energy. Using a custom-built Proof of Authority (POA) blockchain our members will be able to trade their electricity with other consumers peer to peer and in almost real-time. Our energy supply is generated primarily by our own customers, any extra energy requirements will be bought wholesale from other renewable sources, giving us the buying power of a large customer base allowing us to negotiate excellent deals. In the UK current feed-in tariffs vary between 0.03p per KW/h to 0.055p per KW/h. Other energy companies have to buy REGO (Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin) Certificates in order to sell their solar-generated energy back to the grid. But by tokenising the process our customers can see in almost realtime where their energy is coming from. This gives us a saving of 15p per MW/h, plus by tracking our energy back to the renewable source we can also tokenise ROCs (Renewable Obligation Certificates) bringing in an extra £47.70 per MW/h. These savings can be passed back to our customers. Peer to peer trading between our customers takes place automatically by our infrastructure matching sellers with buyers of energy based on their location. Picking the closest producer to the consumer making the energy truly local. This gives maximum returns to the producer with payments also being made instantly a vast improvement to the current system that can see solar owners rewarded for their energy in up to 6 months. All these transactions happen using Rowen tokens with consumers buying tokens to buy their energy from local rooftop producers. The more customers we sign up, the more the demand for our tokens. Rowan has built its own Proof of Authority blockchain. We decided to go down this route in order to build a low powered and therefore low-carbon solution. We wanted to have control of the software side in order to scale the chain as we need, and not relying on the developers of other public chains. This is also now an asset that makes Rowan more valuable. It's also attractive to other Energy Suppliers to use as it's private and meets carbon targets.

As we envision the web3 space to become agentic and overtake humans in the amount of transactions over time, what Rivalz is building is key for enabling this future. The core challenge that Rivalz is addressing is the need for AI-ready, verifiable and accessible data and later on intelligence. Rivalz offers a hybrid solution combining decentralized storage and high-speed agent-centric connectivity networks that cater specifically to AI's demands, ushering in the era of the agentic economy.

Fan Controlled Football League
Expected to kick off in 2018, the Fan-Controlled Football League (FCFL) reimagines American football – and the experience of being a die-hard fan – for the digital age. The FCFL will seek to deliver a compelling football product that captivates a broader digital audience. It will feature fast-paced, high-scoring action that embraces the spread-football evolution of the NCAA football and NFL games while enabling a diverse set of styles and strategies on both offense and defense ─ all controlled by the fans. Player personnel and real-time play calling decisions are all made by fans via the league’s blockchain platform, making fans the coach and general manager for their team. Fans will no longer be just viewers; rather, they will be active contributors to the games they are watching. This is a transformational shift in the way sports fans engage and interact: no more sitting back and passively watching as a team’s roster takes shape or a game unfolds. They will be essential to the league’s product both on the field and off. This is the democratization of sports, and it’s about to be realized through the most innovative sports league ever created, thanks to decentralized blockchain technology.

World Mobile Token
World Mobile is going the extra mile to open a new world. With nearly 4 billion people left offline, digital exclusion is a significant problem. Unlike traditional mobile networks, World Mobile is based on the sharing economy, selling affordable network nodes to local business owners, and so they have the power to connect themselves and others while sharing the rewards. The World Mobile Token (WMT) is a digital token that is issued with the purpose of allowing the participants to provide a service on the network and be rewarded accordingly for it. The primary role of WMT is to incentivise both token holders that want to support the operation of the network by way of delegating their WMT stake to a node operator (stakers) as well as node operators that operate their own node. WMT is the utility token at the heart of World Mobile Chain, a solution developed in partnership between Input Output Global and World Mobile to democratize access to digital, financial and social services in Africa, the first of its kind to go the extra mile and connect the unconnected. The sharing economy enabled by WMT provides the foundation for affordable network nodes, based on the Cardano blockchain infrastructure. These network nodes act as local relays for internet connectivity. Subscribers to these networks will be able to access Input Output’s digital identity solution, Atala PRISM, which will allow them to use services such as digital banking, healthcare and education.
