“Using the same technology that makes Bitcoin possible, neighbors are buying and selling renewable energy to each other…”
“The idea with blockchain is that everything is done peer to peer,” says Duke University economist Campbell R. Harvey. “With a microgrid, people that have solar panels can actually trade amongst themselves. They don’t have to have a centralized person in the middle that is taking a piece of the action.” In a time when the national electricity grid could be vulnerable to terrorism and climatic events, a new technology “could potentially resolve some of these problems,” he says.
Brooklyn, he says, is “a glimpse of the future.”

Our government doesn’t want to shift so we’ll do it ourselves. Saves energy and money, while harming no one. 🙂
