SunContract Unveils NFT Marketplace for Real-World Solar Panels
Slovenian energy trading platform SunContract has revealed “The Personal Power Plant.”
Per the press release shared with Cryptonews, this is the world’s first NFT marketplace for real-world solar panels.
It stated that,
“For the first time, users can directly benefit from the energy produced by their NFT-linked panels either by earning from them or for personal consumption at home or in their businesses.”
SunContract is an Ethereum-based platform that demonstrates how blockchain can be used to empower the clean energy sector.
The inaugural tokenized solar farm is located in the Višnje village at a facility featuring 2,112 solar panels with 517 Kw in power.
Moreover, each NFT represents a specific panel at the farm. The holder enjoys the benefits associated with the physical asset, said the platform.
Our #NFT marketplace was officially open by CEO of the Global Solar Council, Sonia Dunlop, and co-founder of #SunContract, Gregor Novak.

The team explained that “the initiative is aimed at people committed to the green transition and eager to invest in the future of renewables, as well as crypto community to get exposure to real economy through the renewable energy sector.”
In the first phase, the team will sell the energy generated from the underlying solar panel on users’ behalf via SunContract’s P2P energy marketplace in return for SNC tokens. The tokens will be credited to users’ wallets after operational and maintenance fees are deducted.
Furthermore, the platform will “subsequently” roll out functionality to give the option to NFT holders to use the energy in countries where SunContract owns energy permits or licenses. It will start with Slovenia, Croatia, and Estonia, with more countries to come.
“The approach aims to democratize renewable energy and make it accessible to everyone – including apartment-dwellers – while also linking the blockchain and crypto to real world assets,” SunContract said.
Users can buy and sell the solar-linked NFTs on SunContract’s NFT marketplace, while token-holders can manage the energy generated by their “Personal Power Plant” from a smartphone.
