Blockchain for Energy (B4E) is a non-profit, member-led consortium dedicated to driving digital transformation within the energy sector. Comprising major energy companies including Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Repsol, B4E was established to collaboratively develop and implement blockchain-based solutions that can enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and increase transparency across the industry.
The consortium's flagship product is the B4ECarbon platform, an advanced digital measurement, reporting, and verification (dMRV) solution. This platform integrates AI and IoT with distributed ledger technology to provide a secure and auditable system for managing emissions data. It enables energy operators to track, report, and verify their environmental performance in near real-time, helping to prevent greenwashing and ensure compliance with global standards. The B4E Network & Platform, built on Hyperledger FireFly, serves as the foundational layer connecting all of the consortium's solutions in a decentralised environment governed by its members.
The B4ECarbon platform is built on the Hedera public network, and has been a member of the Hedera Governing Council since June 2025.
eMission is a Canadian company that is developing a comprehensive platform for the measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) of enterprise carbon emissions and removal. Its goal is to provide a fully auditable and transparent system that can help businesses and governments accurately track their carbon footprint and achieve their sustainability goals.
The core of eMission's service is a platform that uses a combination of satellite data, IoT sensors, and advanced analytics to provide a detailed and near real-time view of carbon emissions. This data-driven approach is designed to overcome the limitations of traditional, often manual, methods of carbon accounting. By providing a more accurate and transparent system, eMission aims to build trust in the carbon credit market and facilitate the flow of capital to high-impact environmental projects.
eMission received a grant from the Hedera Foundation to develop a suite of open-source tools and methodologies on Hedera Guardian, a platform for creating and managing digital environmental assets. This integration will allow for the tokenisation of verified carbon credits, creating a secure and transparent market for these assets.
Bitcarbon is a digital asset created by Diamond Standard, founded in 2018. Bitcarbon functions as the governance token for the "Carats" ecosystem, which is a system of commodity tokens backed by physical Diamond Standard Coins and Bars held in secure vaults.
The core product is a fungible and transparent diamond commodity, which is tokenised to create liquidity in the previously illiquid diamond market. Each "Carat" token represents a fractional ownership of a Diamond Standard commodity, providing a trustless store of wealth that can be used for payments. The Bitcarbon token, in turn, governs the Carats smart contract and earns revenue from the transaction and custody fees generated by the Carats ecosystem. This creates a unique digital asset that is intrinsically linked to the value and utility of a physical, real-world asset.
Bitcarbon and the entire Diamond Standard ecosystem are deeply integrated with the Hedera network. The company uses the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to mint and manage its digital assets, including the tokens that represent ownership of the physical diamond commodities.
