Glow protocol
Overview
Glow is an Ethereum-based decentralized protocol that incentivizes solar energy generation by rewarding solar-farm operators with its native GLW token for verified electricity production. It operates as a DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) project, aiming to scale clean energy through blockchain-based verification and rewards, and raised $30M led by Framework Ventures and Union Square Ventures.
