Report Highlights Areas Where Businesses Can Make Energy Efficiency Improvements When Building on Ethereum
WAKEFIELD, Mass. – April 12, 2022 – The Enterprise Ethereum Alliance (EEA) today announced the publication of its Summary Report & Key Takeaways: EEA Workshop on Sustainability and Resource Efficiency in Public and Private Ethereum Networks, available as a document for download free of charge. The report outlines key findings of the EEA Ethereum Sustainability and Resource Efficiency Workshop, where EEA leaders and the Ethereum community discussed the ways to optimize the energy efficiency of business operations.
“Ethereum is accelerating its path to a greener future. With the rise of DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs more businesses are looking to build on Ethereum and want to understand how to reduce their carbon footprint,” said EEA Executive Director Dan Burnett. “The EEA summary report provides important insights from Ethereum researchers and the business community on ways to create sustainable Web 3.0 business models.
