But looking at the current state of affairs would suggest that the project is well advanced. SolarCoins already exist in 73 countries, and PV system operators in these countries have already mined over 97 billion SolarCoins. To still be talking about it as an experiment at this stage suggests they are taking a very cautious approach.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-l6vyt0b9-14a8656304a310b5c5f443e6fa1bd180'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2><strong>How SolarCoins work<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The most important thing is that there is no risk whatsoever to the PV system operators because no investment is required. What they have is the opportunity to generate units of a blockchain-based cryptocurrency \u2014 SolarCoins \u2014 just by operating their own PV systems. These coins can then be transferred, traded and exchanged for material currencies worldwide. This is a form of added value that the operators can generate beyond mere power generation. Here\u2019s how they do it:<\/p>\n<p>The first requirement is to register. PV system operators register their entitlement to sign up to the solar currency at a SolarCoin branch. SMA\u2019s Sunny Portal is the relevant authority for this in Germany. It takes care of all the bureaucratic formalities with the SolarCoin Foundation on the operators\u2019 behalf. The registration process also involves verifying the registered PV system.<\/p>\n<p>After registering successfully, the operators receive a SolarCoin wallet in which to store the solar currency. From this point on, they will receive exactly one SolarCoin for each megawatt-hour of power generated, which they can use just as they like.<\/p>\n<p>As is the case with other cryptocurrencies, SolarCoins can also be sent to other wallets or saved up over time in paper wallets. They can also be exchanged for different national currencies via trading platforms. Platforms that trade in SolarCoins include Livecoin, CoinExchange, Graviex and Lykke Exchange.<\/p>\n<p>To calculate the actual production quantity, which forms the basis for SolarCoin credits, data points need to be transferred a few times a year to verify the amount of power produced. There are already a number of leading platforms worldwide that perform SolarCoin verification today. You can find out more detailed information at the relevant SolarCoin branch.<\/p>\n<p>PV system operators have the option of receiving harvested SolarCoins via automated data import. This requires the submission of paper documents via an online interface or through the relevant SolarCoin branch. There is a second option, but the SCF states that this is available only to operators of larger PV systems starting at 500 kilowatts.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Is the concept catching on?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The success of the SolarCoin experiment hinges on how the idea is catching on in the public eye. This relies not only on the PV system operators, but also on the participation of the general public. When the first cryptocurrency was launched you could buy two margherita pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoins, whereas one Bitcoin is now worth around \u20ac9,000. If SolarCoin establishes itself as an internationally recognized cryptocurrency, PV system operators stand to make considerable additional profits in their homes \u2014 without any added expenses whatsoever.<\/p>\n<p>Whether SolarCoin catches on also depends, not least, on how many global companies accept it as a means of payment. Solar companies could take the first step here by providing goods and services in exchange for SolarCoins at the current market price. That would be the initial spark that could help the environmental cryptocurrency make a breakthrough. SMA is already looking into ideas like this.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_full flex_column_div  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock \"><div class=\"swe-special-images swe-special-images-1 subtitle\"><div class=\"image-container image-container-image-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/SolarCoin-SMA-Sunny-Portal_715x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" aria-label=\"SolarCoin is a currency spent on energy generation that can be used by all solar power producers worldwide as an additional incentive.

The SolarCoin Foundation\u2019s mission is to accelerate the establishment of renewable energies focusing on solar energy. The mission has a 40-year scope.<\/p>\n<p>If operators are wanting to embody the spirit of the founders, all they need to do is to collect the coins, without expecting billions in profits. \u201cSolarCoin is like frequent flyer miles for solar power producers all around the world,\u201d said Joseph Zitoli, describing the concept. To avoid having to wait any longer for government grants for the solar industry, they are hoping that this will become a form of start-up support for the global switch to renewable energy sources.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Sunny Portal \u2014 the home of SolarCoin in Germany:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunnyportal.com\"> www.sunnyportal.com<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For operators of PV systems with a nominal power of up to 150 kWp, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sma-sunny.com\/neues-feature-fuer-solarcoins-im-sunny-portal-so-funktionierts\/\">Sunny <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sma-sunny.com\/neues-feature-fuer-solarcoins-im-sunny-portal-so-funktionierts\/\">Portal<\/a> is a full service provider, including for the purchase of SolarCoins. SMA makes it especially easy for registered users on the platform to obtain the promising cryptocoins.<\/p>\n<p>This doesn\u2019t just involve providing the aforementioned support for registering with the SolarCoin Foundation. Sunny Portal also offers complete infrastructure for purchasing coins for ongoing power production. \u201cBy activating their accounts, over 260,000 PV system owners and operators worldwide can click and receive SolarCoins as an extra reward for the solar energy they have produced,\u201d explained Nick Gogerty, co-founder of SolarCoin. \u201cThey can claim SolarCoins for energy produced since January 2010 and for the next 35 years going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>All operators with admin rights for their systems can expand their accounts to include the purchase of SolarCoins. Operators without admin rights can be transferred coins from their system suppliers. After a short wait, their accounts will be activated for the purchase of SolarCoins.<\/p>\n<p>From then on, the SolarCoin Foundation will update account balances based on registered production data several times a year. This does not require a wallet as the account balance is managed directly through the SCF. Only if the coins are to be redeemed for use is a wallet required so that the coins can be stored on people\u2019s computers.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The price is right<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The SolarCoin exchange rate is currently around USD 0.01. This roughly equates to the issue price. When the price shot up temporarily to USD 2.40 in January 2018, this was proof that there is more behind the currency. While it may have been primarily a parallel effect of the Bitcoin euphoria at the time, it showed very clearly that SolarCoin is to be taken seriously as a cryptocurrency that responds to market influences and expresses them in price movements. This is a good start to the mission to achieve a completely solar-powered planet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div class=\"center-content\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sonnenallee.sma.de\/en\/\" class=\"btn inverted\">Close article<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first digital currency created by solar energy.
