July 23, 2024 — ZUG, Switzerland — Energy Web, a pioneer in developing open-source technology solutions for the energy sector, is thrilled to announce a strategic partnership with Acurast, an innovative leader in decentralized computing. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in enhancing the capabilities of both platforms while driving sustainability and technological innovation across the global energy landscape.

The partnership aims to seamlessly integrate Energy Web worker node networks with Acurast’s Decentralized Compute network. This integration will enable Energy Web users to host Energy Web workers on Acurast’s secure and widely distributed compute protocol. The primary goal is to facilitate a more efficient and scalable deployment of digital energy solutions.

In a move to expand its digital footprint, Energy Web will leverage the Acurast SDK to roll out a new mobile application. This collaboration will not only enhance mobile accessibility but also significantly improve the functionality, providing users with robust tools for managing their energy resources efficiently.

Both Acurast and Energy Web Foundation are committed to sustainability. Acurast’s approach to upcycling smartphones, giving them a second life as compute units in its decentralized network, dramatically reduces electronic waste and promotes efficient resource use. Similarly, Energy Web Foundation is dedicated to accelerating the clean energy transition through its development of cutting-edge, open-source technologies for energy systems.

By combining their unique resources and expertise, Acurast and Energy Web Foundation aim to foster significant innovation, efficiency, and sustainability in the energy sector. This partnership underscores their shared vision of a more sustainable and decentralized future, driving positive change across communities worldwide.
