Ant Digital Puts $8.4 Billion of China’s Clean-Energy Assets on Blockchain

On-chain readings from millions of energy devices anchor financing, with any offshore trading subject to approval.

Overview

  • Ant Digital has connected roughly 60 billion yuan of renewable energy infrastructure to its AntChain network, tracking power output and outages from about 15 million devices.
  • The company has completed tokenized financings totaling around 300 million yuan across three clean-energy projects, according to reports citing Bloomberg.
  • Executives are exploring listings of energy-linked tokens on offshore decentralized exchanges to improve liquidity, a step that would require regulatory clearance.
  • Tokens are structured as fractional claims on project cash flows, with meter data relayed by oracles, verified, and recorded immutably for auditors and investors.
  • Earlier deals included raising 100 million yuan for Longshine Technology and over 200 million yuan for GCL Energy Technology, while early participation is expected to be primarily institutional.
