017 - The Blockchain is the catalyst to speed up the transition in energy

In this episode on BOOM! It's on the Blockchain, Alastair Caithness and the 'Shep', are joined by Dave Rogers, Ziyen Energy CTO, to discuss the transition in energy, and why we at Ziyen believe the blockchain is the cog in the system to speed up the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Key Topics Covered in the latest podcast include: Dave Rogers discusses his feature in the Embry-Riddle's Lift Magazine, where Ziyen could use blockchain as the catalyst to transform the global energy sector from fossil-based to zero-carbon before the second half of this century. Shep discusses Stanley Myers who developed the concept of water car powered by hydrogen.  The car actually comes from burning of hydrogen, derived through electrolysis which is splitting the atoms of water to power the automotive industry for cleaner technology. Alastair Caithness discusses in more depth Energy Tokens, the Asset Backed Tokenization Platform for the Energy Industry. Ziyen Energy has created Energy Tokens a robust end-to-end solution to enable the efficient ownership and trading of direct interests in energy producing assets, including oil and gas, solar and wind. In so doing, Ziyen Energy believes it will completely transform the mechanisms by which these valuable assets may be acquired, held and transferred Prior to Energy Tokens direct investments in energy producing assets have been made exclusively through negotiated private transactions through parties in direct and personal contact with one another, the transfer of even the smallest interests in energy producing assets have required negotiated contracts and physical document filings in antiquated local land registries and the information to support making and monitoring such investments is not readily available to owners and other stakeholders or preserved in a complete and unalterable form for the life of the project and beyond. The Energy Tokens platform has been developed to address these inherent problems by democratizing energy investment opportunities, creating liquidity for illiquid energy investments, and facilitating better access to capital for energy development projects.
