Arkreen's network uses a community-driven DePIN model with token incentives to balance supply and demand. On the supply side, mechanisms like “Impact to Earn” allow household solar systems to issue green assets, while the demand side employs “Play to Impact” strategies like the GreenBTC.Club. The Plug for Green Program (PGP) was introduced to help individuals achieve carbon neutrality by offsetting daily electricity use. This program leverages blockchain’s low transfer costs to make personal energy offsetting affordable and accessible for everyone.

The Smart Plug, launched in September 2023, tracks electricity use and incentivizes reductions in greenhouse gas emissions under GHG Protocol Scope 2. The initial trial encouraged lower electricity consumption but faced natural limits. Now upgraded, the program rewards sustainable green behaviors, such as offsetting grid power usage with Arkreen’s green assets. Participants can integrate Smart Plugs with distributed solar PV systems to create a full loop of personal carbon neutrality.

Arkreen’s Plug for Green Program enables users to offset daily energy consumption, such as home electricity or even Bitcoin mining energy, by utilizing Arkreen green assets (e.g., ART). The program creates a flexible framework for individuals to contribute to carbon neutrality in a decentralized and cost-efficient way. Additionally, users can combine Smart Plug data with green asset offsets to participate in dual-mining mechanisms, earning rewards for sustainability initiatives alongside other blockchain activities.
