Reneum

Headquartered in Singapore, The Reneum Institute is a not-for-profit company aiming to attract global climate capital for new renewable energy developments. Reneum aims to increase the action of non-state actors by mobilizing corporate demand and opening up market segments that are currently not supported by domestic Environmental Attribute Certificate (EAC) systems.

Reneum’s digital EAC platform leverages the decentralized ledger technology of the blockchain to facilitate EAC certification, issuance, and transactions. Reneum issues tokens for every MWh of green power generated to clean energy producers free-of-charge, a reliable revenue stream that enables project bankability. By verifying and recording electricity generation data gathered directly from smart meters of renewable energy projects, Reneum ensures the provenance of the energy is validated before it enters the market. Reneum tokens may then be purchased by a corporate buyer, and retired from circulation directly in the platform to ensure tracking compliance. By serving as a digital marketplace, Reneum unlocks a global market to support the sustainability targets of companies, governments and not-for-profits organisation worldwide.
