Case study: RECs Tokenization with Energie de France (EDF)


REDEX is developing a proof of concept with EDF to automate REC transactions through their lifecycle in real-time. This represents the first RECs tokenization project that enables real-time high-volume transactions with end consumers

The project will primarily benefit electric Vehicle charging companies and their clients by giving them access to real-time retirement of RECs, making instantaneous trades possible. This will enable more products to be differentiated in branding as "100% renewable", driving more demand for RECs, which will lead to more renewable energy projects being built.

This project will enable the market to move towards more consumer-facing applications where traceable environmental attributes can be attached directly to end products.

REDEX is proud to work with Hedera's ecosystem of partners:
