Link to the registry
The certificate or contract is verified at the source (e.g. the I-REC registry) and bound to the token that represents it.
ENERGY
Energy Tokenization
Free-market contracts (ACL), renewable energy certificates (I-REC) and PPAs converted into tokens, with contractual backing and traceability from generation to consumption.

From generation to consumption, traceable
The opening of Brazil's free energy market multiplied agents and contracts, and with them the complexity of tracing who generated, who consumed, and which environmental attribute each MWh carries.
The platform structures the tokenization of that market's instruments: renewable energy certificates (I-REC), power purchase agreements (PPAs) and positions in the free contracting environment (ACL), each with contractual backing and a traceable record.
Tokenized, the certificate or contract gains fractionability, a complete ownership trail and programmable transfer rules, without losing the link to the registry of origin.
How it works
01 02 Permissioned issuance
The token is issued on the ERC-3643 standard, with eligibility and limits defined by the issuer.
03 Controlled circulation
Transfers only execute between approved wallets, with the position traceable from generation to consumption.
04 Attribute retirement
When the attribute is used (e.g. proving renewable consumption), the token is retired for good, eliminating double counting.
Instruments
The energy-market instruments the structure supports:
I-REC
International renewable energy certificate (The International REC Standard), attesting the origin of 1 MWh generated.
PPA
Power Purchase Agreement: a long-term energy purchase contract, the basis for financing generation projects.
ACL / Free Market
Free Contracting Environment: consumers trade energy directly with generators and traders, under CCEE and ANEEL rules.
Sector framework
The institutions and rules that organize the free energy market:
- I-REC Standard
- International renewable-attribute certification standard, with controlled registry and retirement.
- CCEE
- Brazil's electric energy trading chamber: accounts for and settles free-market operations.
- ANEEL
- Brazil's electricity regulator: governs the sector and the conditions for accessing the free environment.
- ACL opening
- Since 2024, high-voltage consumers can migrate to the free market (MME Normative Ordinance 50/2022).
