SCOPE
Green technology focuses on minimizing environmental impact through renewable energy, efficient resource utilization, and sustainable practices. Blockchain technology complements these goals by offering transparency, decentralization, and trust in environmental management systems. By enabling secure and tamper-proof records, blockchain supports carbon credit trading, renewable energy certification, and sustainable supply chain monitoring. Smart contracts automate compliance with environmental regulations and incentivize eco-friendly behavior among stakeholders. In energy systems, blockchain facilitates peer-to-peer energy trading, reducing dependence on centralized grids and improving efficiency. The integration of green technology with blockchain enhances accountability, reduces fraud, and promotes data-driven sustainability initiatives. Together, they provide a robust technological foundation for achieving long-term environmental sustainability and supporting global climate action goals.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Blockchain-Enabled Carbon Credit Trading Systems for Emission Reduction
- Decentralized Renewable Energy Trading Using Blockchain and Smart Contracts
- Blockchain-Based Sustainable Supply Chain Management for Green Manufacturing
