We’re thrilled to announce that OpenVPP $OVPP has been chosen as a Circle Grant recipient!   Circle is helping bring the global economy onchain with $USDC and a set of developer-first tools designed to make building with digital dollars easy, secure, and scalable.   With Circle’s support, we’re excited to accelerate what we’re building and unlocking new possibilities through fast, cost-efficient, and interoperable onchain experiences.   Explore the program and meet the latest cohort of grantees here @circle cq2m904.na1.hubspotlinks.com…

Reprioritizing affordability for grid modernization starts at our agentic onchain metering platform for DERs. @GridRailsAi, the IP license partner of @OpenVPP, is pitching alongside this lineup of the world's most promising startups to the most influential sponsors in energy. 🌐 gridforward.org/conference/g… Together $OVPP x GR AI have tokenized over 1 GWhs of flexibile capacity onchain for the next generation of our electric grid operations. --> Batteries, EV chargers, smart panels, thermostats and solar inverters stream interval telemetry signed at the edge. --> Each reading is minted onchain as an ERC-1155 token on EVM, with one standard covering many asset types and event classes. --> Agents on each device respond to grid signals, verify delivered flexibility and settle via machine-to-machine nanopayments. Utilities gain a verifiable, auditable record of every kWh shifted or shed. Customers get paid per event in real time. Aggregators and OEMs plug into one open and trustless settlement layer. Affordable capacity, measured and settled at the edge. See you at GridFWD. Cliff Lodge, Utah Sept. 29 - 30th. The Internet of Energy.

3,968 registrations. 1,239 projects. 12 finalists. Meet the hackathon finalist teams that are heading into the @arc Programmable Money Accelerator! Eight weeks of workshops, 1:1s with the Encode team and a Demo Day in front of investors in November. Kicks off today at 4pm! Find out more👇 encodeclub.com/programmes/ar…

Yes it was a great sit down!! Tokenized assets are increasingly becoming a powerful segment of the onchain economy. Energy is something that I’ve been passionate about for years and even wrote about in published paper. Happy to see companies like @OpenVPP and others explore and test out the capabilities.

We're excited to share that OpenVPP World has surpassed 1,000 Metric Tons of CO2 Offset. 🌐 world.openvpp.energy/ This is equivalent to: ~Taking approximately 230 gasoline cars off the road for one year. ~The annual energy-related emissions of approximately 130 homes. ~CO₂ emissions from burning about 112,500 gallons of gasoline. ~CO₂ approximately 16,700 urban trees would capture in one year. ~The emissions from driving an average gasoline vehicle approximately 2.54 million miles. ~2,000 round-trip economy flights, roughly comparable to the emissions from thousands of passenger flights, depending heavily on route and methodology. ~1 million kWh of electricity, comparable to the CO₂ emissions associated with around 1 million kWh of U.S. electricity generation, depending on the grid mix. ~Equivalent to the emissions from burning about 112,500 gallons of gasoline. base:0x8c0d3adcf8ce094e1ae437557ec90a6374dc9bdd The Internet of Energy.

Where the Internet of Energy and Programmable Money Meet. OpenVPP is Proud to be a Day 1 Architect on @arc. 🌐 arc.openvpp.energy/ Mainnet 9.16.26.

Arc was built for developers exploring what’s possible when stablecoins, wallets, and programmable payments come together. @OpenVPP is using Arc Testnet to explore real-time energy settlement across EVs, utilities, and grid-connected devices, including: → Stablecoin settlement → Gas-sponsored wallets → Machine-to-machine payments → Nanopayments for grid data access As a proof of concept, OpenVPP has built a grid-balancing agent that pays $0.0001 in USDC every 4 seconds to access grid frequency and pricing data, evaluate a battery dispatch decision, and track the resulting data cost. A technical look at what they’ve built on Arc: arc.io/blog/how-openvpp-is-e…

Power in numbers.

OpenVPP World Tokenization standard turns any DER into an onchain smart metered device. Today, M&V (measurement & verification) is the slowest part of the grid. A solar array, a battery, an EV charger, a smart thermostat, each one produces or curtails real energy, and each one waits weeks or months for that energy to be measured, verified, credited, and finally paid, typically via gift card or on bill credits. The meter and the money live in different systems, reconciled by hand. The standard collapses them into one. When a DER is tokenized, its output isn't a data point that later becomes a payment --> it is the payment. Energy and money clear in the same instant, in a single transaction. Settlement is immediate, and M&V stops being a back-office process months after the fact; it becomes a property of the asset itself. This runs on ERC-1155, the EVM multi-token standard that handles fungible, non-fungible, and semi-fungible tokens inside a single smart contract. That matters more than it sounds. A DER isn't one kind of thing: the device is unique, its kWh are interchangeable, and its capacity, credits, and attributes sit somewhere in between. Open standard for all smart energy devices globally. Metered, verified, and paid in the same instant. 🌐 world.openvpp.energy/ $OVPP Programmable money for programmable power.
