Energy Web Launches AutoGreenCharge App to Decarbonize Electric Vehicle Charging
Energy Web has just announced the beta release of its innovative mobile app, AutoGreenCharge, which is set to revolutionize the way electric vehicle (EV) owners charge their cars. This app ensures that every charge is powered by renewable energy, making it easy for EV owners to decarbonize their transportation.
AutoGreenCharge is available to EV owners worldwide, including those with popular models like Tesla, BMW, and Mercedes. This app is powered by Energy Web's decentralized EnergywebX platform and utilizes blockchain technology to secure each charging session. By matching EV charging sessions with renewable energy certificates (RECs), AutoGreenCharge provides real-time verification that the energy used comes from renewable sources.
According to Mani Hagh Sefat, Energy Web's Chief Technology Officer, "AutoGreenCharge represents a major step forward in the electrification and decarbonization of transportation. By providing EV owners with a seamless way to ensure their cars are charged with renewable energy, we're empowering drivers to make more sustainable choices and actively contribute to the global energy transition."
The app also partners with Smart Car to enable EV owners to easily connect their vehicles to the platform, allowing for automatic tracking of each charging session. Users will soon be able to retire real RECs with each session and customize their preferences for the type and location of renewable energy.
AutoGreenCharge integrates with Polkadot to securely record every transaction and REC retirement. In the future, users will have the option to select certificates from a variety of power plants with different attributes, such as solar power plants in high-emission grids.
The beta version of AutoGreenCharge is now available on Apple's TestFlight and the Google Play Store.
