As AI workloads scale and data centres begin participating in demand response programs, one problem becomes obvious: how do you verify — in real time — that energy actions actually happened?
Traditional settlement systems in power markets rely on manual reconciliation, delayed metering reports, trust between intermediaries, and batch processing. This creates friction, disputes, and settlement delays.
There’s a better way. EnergyAtIt explored a novel hash-chain settlement architecture that enables secure, verifiable, and near real-time settlement for energy actions.
We explored the architecture behind this approach in more detail here:
