Blockchain certificates: any attribute of a product or of energy, verifiable by anyone, with no double counting.

We issue verifiable digital certificates, from origin to buyer, for two needs: proving that a product does not come from deforested land, as the European Union requires, and proving a positive impact, such as the renewable energy a solar park generates.

What we can certify

One certificate per attribute, issued from real data and verifiable online by anyone. These are the certificates we design and implement:

  • Available

    Origin and deforestation-free (EUDR)

    Every batch linked to its geolocated plot, ready to export to the European Union.

  • Available

    Fair trade

    Fair prices and working conditions, verifiable batch by batch, without paperwork.

  • Live

    Renewable energy (REC / I-REC / Guarantees of Origin)

    Every renewable MWh certified once, from the meter to the certificate.

  • Available

    Carbon footprint and avoided emissions

    Measured and avoided emissions, with traceable source data for your reports.

  • Available

    Organic production and good practices

    Declared and audited practices, with evidence that cannot be altered.

  • Available

    Animal health and welfare traceability

    Ear tag or RFID, vaccines and movements of each animal, from farm to buyer.

  • Available

    Social impact

    People reached and verified deliveries, for donors and auditors.

  • Available

    Your own attribute

    Another attribute to prove? If it can be measured, we can turn it into a certificate.

Why blockchain

A paper or PDF certificate asks you to trust whoever issued it. A blockchain certificate can be checked.

  1. 01

    Verifiable by anyone

    The buyer, the regulator or the auditor checks it online, without asking for permission or trusting an intermediary.

  2. 02

    No double counting

    Each certificate is issued once and burned when it is used: nobody can sell it twice.

  3. 03

    Traceable from the source

    From the kWh or the plot to the certificate, every step is recorded.

  4. 04

    Issued automatically from real data

    Certificates are issued from measurements (meters, sensors, records), not from declarations.

  5. 05

    Ownership and liquidity

    Tokens can be held, transferred and redeemed: the attribute becomes an asset.

  6. 06

    A bridge to global markets

    Renewable energy certificates are used in 50+ countries, such as the EU's Guarantees of Origin and I-REC.

Use case

At the Mundo Maipú community solar park, in Greater Córdoba, the first in Argentina to tokenize its generation, every kWh injected into the grid becomes tokens and, with them, verifiable certificates. Before, renewable energy certificates (RECs) had no verifiable digital implementation in the country.

Three tokens, one certificate

  1. 01

    PUG

    Participation

    Represents participation in each generation project.

  2. 02

    ERI

    Injected Renewable Energy

    Issued according to the kWh actually generated and injected into the grid.

  3. 03

    Sustainability

    Environmental attributes

    Captures the environmental attributes of that energy.

  4. 04

    REC

    1,000 tokens = 1 MWh

    Burning 1,000 sustainability tokens issues a REC for 1 MWh, traceable on blockchain, with no double counting.

  • With the citizen's digital identity

    Integrated with Ciudadano Digital, the Government of Córdoba's digital identity: no additional accounts.

  • To national scaleIn development

    Xcapit is developing, with IDB Lab, a platform for the traceability of renewable energy certificates at national scale.

Why it matters

Without having the best solar radiation in the country, Córdoba leads the national ranking of distributed renewable generation: with the right incentives, its users generate and inject their own energy. Blockchain certificates make that incentive verifiable and tradable.

EU Deforestation Regulation

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires proving that seven commodities do not come from deforested land. We help you prove it, batch by batch.

The 7 regulated commodities

  • Coffee
  • Cocoa
  • Soy
  • Cattle
  • Palm oil
  • Rubber
  • Wood
  • Geolocation of every plot
  • Batch and chain of custody recorded on-chain (on a blockchain, where they cannot be altered without leaving a trace)
  • Data ready for the due-diligence statement the EU requires
  • Also usable for fair-trade labels

EUDR: key dates

Who it is for

  • Agricultural exporters and cooperatives
  • European importers
  • Fair-trade certifiers
  • Community renewable energy generators and utilities
  • Companies that report environmental impact
