About PROSUME
decentralizing power
Energy, and the power that comes with it, belongs with the people who produce it.
Why we exist
Value is created locally and captured elsewhere
Clean energy, carbon removal, forests and land, water and waste hold real value, yet the communities that produce and protect them cannot hold, move or exchange it.
PROSUME measures each asset at the source, has every reading verified by cryptography and by industry partners, and turns it into value a person keeps in a wallet, in two layers, just like money.
