Overview
The TROEF Dutch energy project leveraged Carbon Central's platform to track and verify its carbon footprint.
The TROEF consortium aimed to develop carbon-neutral cities across the Netherlands by bringing together industry leaders and academic institutions, including NEN, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, STEDIN, and others, to create sustainable energy communities.
Project Objective
The consortium focused on enabling peer-to-peer energy trading and CO₂ certificate trading through the Internet of Energy (IoE), connecting communities to accelerate decarbonisation.
The initiative seeked to optimise the use of sustainable energy, reduce energy costs through demand response rewards, and enable shared energy generation and storage.
Carbon Central supported this by enabling real-time monitoring of energy production and consumption, with all data securely recorded on its immutable Trust Chain for transparency and verification.
The result
The TROEF project aimed to lower transition costs, enhance sustainability, and promote a healthier environment. Through its collaboration with Carbon Central, TROEF advanced the Netherlands’ progress toward a net-zero carbon future while demonstrating leadership in smart energy management and transparent carbon reporting.
