Traditional Consortia
Understand the Value of Web3.
Solution Overview
Web3 allows industry participants to run highly resilient shared infrastructure without the need to trust a single entity. This property makes it worthwhile for traditional consortia to explore how Web3 can bring value to all its stakeholders. Wivity can aid these explorations.
Case Study
Securing the Distributed Energy Grid
The Challenge
The energy grid is migrating from centralized power generation to distributed power generation provided by millions of solar panels, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems. While this increases the resiliency of power generation, it also makes the challenge of securing the supply chain much more complex.
Our Solution
Wivity helped SunSpec Alliance build its first cybersecurity certification program for distributed energy resources (DERs) and store the data on a new blockchain network called Lumian. The result will be a “cybersecurity nervous system” that provides the necessary security and reduces the cost burden on participants.
