Australia’s Vicinity Real Estate Company to Use Power Ledger Blockchain Solar Energy Solution

One of the major real estate companies in Australia, Vicinity, has recently announced that it would use the blockchain technology to create solutions for cheap energy using solar power. The company has made the announcement on a press release today.

Vicinity currently has more than $42 billion USD in real estate assets and has made a partnership with another Australian giant, Power Ledger. The company will help Vicinity to use its $75 million USD solar energy program, which will be implemented first in Castle Plaza, a mall in Adelaide, South Australia.

Power Ledger will deliver the system created in a partnership with Vicinity to manage this energy in real time all over Australia. Clients will be able to use their solar energy panels to get the energy and the blockchain to store it and use it.

Justin Mills, the Vicinity executive general manager, has affirmed that the blockchain technology can be a great solution to reduce energy costs and conserve the environment.
