Enerjisa Enerji breaks new ground in the energy sector with its collaboration with Akbank and gets prepared to offer the Blockchain technology to its customers preferring the Green Energy product.

Preferring the Green Energy product in line with its sustainability goals, Akbank will be able to choose the renewable energy resources according to their locations, distances and types, to monitor the resource of the energy consumed on an hourly basis, and automatically achieve the sustainability goals. Thus, Enerjisa adds an extra level of transparency to its green tariff and enables Akbank to easily access the sustainability tools.

Enerjisa Enerji to implement for the first time in Turkey

The digital platform will enable Enerjisa Enerji to provide location and hourly (7/24) matching in renewable energy supply and will become a pioneering electricity supply company in the world and the first one in Turkey that can offer such a service.

The Blockchain technology, which will bring a fresh breath to the energy sector, will enable Enerjisa customers to be able to access digital energy services, choose their renewable energy resources, report which renewable energy resource they are matched with, and disclose this information in their annual sustainability reports. Moreover, customers will be able to choose among the renewable energy power plants close to their locations defined in the system and support domestic energy consumption.

Energy technologies will help us shape not only today but also tomorrow, and motivate the stakeholders of today for the future.

Murat Pınar, CEO of Enerjisa Enerji: “At Enerjisa Enerji, we are dedicated to continuous development for a greener and smarter future, and we continue to develop products to the benefit of the environment and facilitate the lives of our customers. Energy technologies will help us shape not only today but also tomorrow, and motivate the stakeholders of today for the future. We are committed to offer a transparent experience to our customers with this service, which will be provided for the first time in our industry using the Blockchain technology. We have the goal to raise awareness based on the question that how much of the electricity we consume is renewable, and we support the awareness with the unique recording feature of the Blockchain technology. Now, our customers will not only present that they are carbon-neutral on an annual basis in their sustainability reports, but also be able to monitor the amount of energy they obtain from renewable energy resources on an hourly basis. On the other hand, we would like to encourage our corporate customers to comply with the high standards set as part of the Paris Climate Agreement and COP26 to combat climate change.

At this point, I am very happy that we introduced the digital energy service we provide with Blockchain technology, as a pioneer in the world, at Akbank, and that we have carried out an exemplary project in our sector in Turkey and worldwide.

We will continue to bring the latest technologies to our industry and raise awareness in the industry for a better world and a green future.”

Hakan Binbaşgil, Managing Director of Akbank: “At Akbank, we endeavour to leave a more habitable world to future generations, define concrete commitments and make these commitments a part of our business strategy. Accordingly, one of our primary goals is to become a carbon neutral bank by 2025. The contribution of the renewable energy supply, of which we have been provided by Enerjisa Enerji since 2021, is of great significance in reducing our carbon footprint and achieving our goal. As a bank that prioritizes transparency in its sustainability activities, we will be able to see from which resources the renewable energy we are supplied is generated, thanks this new and pioneering project. We are glad to be the first organisation to take part in this new project of Enerjisa Enerji.”
