WEATS

WattCarbon is powered by the WattCarbon Energy Attribute Tracking System (WEATS) an independent, hourly registry for certifying and tracking Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) that fulfill the standards of the OpenEAC Alliance.

Verified impact

WEATS EACs include complete details for every watt-hour of energy and gram of carbon, so you can be more strategic with your investments. This includes CO2 savings, location, time, methodology, social impact, and more.

Attributes included in EACs are traceable and auditable, providing verified proof of impact.

How WEATS works

WEATS enables buyers and suppliers to track, retire, and transfer verified EACs. All EACs listed on WEATS are tracked to the watt-hour, ensuring carbon impact can be calculated accurately. Buyers of EACs receive a unique ID showing exactly where and when the clean energy was minted, along with precise emissions savings.

Open source collaboration

EACs generated on WEATS are measured using open-sourced methods verified by the OpenEAC Alliance, a global network of measurement and verification experts collaboratively strengthening EAC standards to create industry-wide consistency. To join the Alliance contact info@wattcarbon.com
