  • Energy Tokenization: From a practical and legal perspective

    Aug 8, 2024 - Erich Schnoeckel, Edgar Kampers, and Leon Gerard Vandenberg dive into the DENYSE Project, which focuses on energy communities using secure sensors on solar panels to track and trade green energy. They discuss Sunified's Unity chip, which tags energy for transparency, and the project’s goal of creating a secure, traceable energy ecosystem. The team explores the challenges of decentralized energy, the role of tokenization, and the impact of new European and Dutch policies on local energy production. The DENYSE Project aims to pilot diverse energy communities by the end of 2024. Please check YouTube for more (contact)details.

  • Innovation in the Energy Domain | Insights Synergy Hackaton (Dutch)

    May 30th, 2024 - Arash Aazami, founder of Unify.Energy and co-founder of the Synergy Hackathon, and Mirjam Langenhuijsen Davidson and Michiel Sintenie, discuss expectations for the hackathon, which was focussed on systemic innovation in the energy sector.

    Mirjam, a senior public affairs advisor at Essent, explains her role in translating practical experiences into policy, emphasizing that many policies fail because they're created in isolation. Michiel, an innovation manager at Vattenfall, highlights the importance of intuition in innovation and likens it to musicians creatively using their instruments.
