1 min. readEnel Group, an Italian green energy company, has teamed up with crypto wallet provider Conio to enable fractional ownership of solar panels through tokenization on the Algorand blockchain. The partnership, announced by Algorand Foundation CMO Marc Vanlerberghe, will introduce a solar-panel tokenization product in Italy. This innovative product will allow Italians to own a share of Enel's solar farms and utilize the generated power to offset residential electricity consumption. Enel will manage the solar panels for fractional owners, adjusting energy production to reduce their electricity bills. Algorand Foundation CEO Staci Warden highlighted the flexibility of offsetting electricity usage through tokenized real-world assets, regardless of location. In a separate development, Damac Group in the UAE has signed a $1 billion deal with Mantra, a blockchain specializing in tokenized RWAs, to tokenize its extensive portfolio, including real estate, hotels, manufacturing, and more.
