Energy Web Launches AutoGreenCharge

Investing.com – Energy Web today announced the beta release of AutoGreenCharge, a mobile app designed to simplify the decarbonization of electric vehicle (EV) charging by ensuring every charge is powered by renewable energy.

The app is available to EV owners worldwide, including those with popular models like Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), BMW (ETR:BMWG), and Mercedes (OTC:MBGYY).

Features of AutoGreenCharge

AutoGreenCharge is built on Energy Web’s decentralized EnergywebX platform and secured through Polkadot blockchain technology. The app matches EV charging sessions with renewable energy certificates (RECs), providing real-time verification that the energy used comes from renewable sources.

“AutoGreenCharge represents a major step forward in the electrification and decarbonization of transportation,” said Mani Hagh Sefat, Energy Web’s Chief Technology Officer. “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. Every charging session is automatically tracked, providing detailed insights into energy consumption and environmental impact.

Future Developments

As the app nears its full release, users will be able to retire real RECs with each session and customize their preferences, choosing the type and location of renewable energy, including solar, wind, and other clean sources from around the world.

By integrating with Polkadot, AutoGreenCharge ensures that every transaction and REC retirement is securely recorded. In the future, users will have the option to select certificates from a variety of power plants with different attributes, such as focusing on solar power plants in high-emission grids to maximize reductions in carbon emissions.

The beta version of AutoGreenCharge is now available on Apple’s TestFlight and the Google Play Store.
