Zalmoxis Blockchain

RED Platform’s Zalmoxis blockchain is available for users’ consultation by searching for blocks, addresses and transactions.

Advantages

Energy saving enabled for processing the transactional blocks by switching to POR (Proof of Reputation).
Using a trusted network of authoritative company-owned nodes means that there will be no traditional mining needed and no wasted energy.
For security and transparency, every 24 hours, an encrypted hash will be registered on the public Ethereum network with all internal transactions on RED.

Transparency

All actions registered on the RED Registry, projects, purchases, etc. remain recorded on the blockchain. The information is available for verification.

Untemperability

The information registered on the blockchain cannot be altered or modified. Accuracy, precision and traceability are extremely important in the process.

Integration with third parties

Blockchain technology allows for faster and more accurate integration of the registry with other interested parties, as well as for future cooperations between interested parties.

NFTs can be sold anywhere

All information is represented andlay between the retirement of credits and the registration of the action on the blockchain. 
The RED Carbon Standard uses the RED Platform for the certification process and carbon credits issuance and management.
Owns its blockchain Zalmoxis (private Ethereum)
Records internal transactions without gas costs in a network with nodes in each country with existing franchises
shapes their own vision and tools using both legacy and modern features along the way
Smart contracts are used inside the blockchain to minimize human error and speed the carbon credit issuing process
Blockchain speed was increased by moving to PoR. Our test and main net can support a continuous load of 1,100 transactions per second
The point of encounter for project developers, corporate and individual clients through online access and our franchised partners:
Users can calculate, receive tokens for their sustainable actions
offset their carbon footprint with published sustainable projects
RED Franchises offer carbon footprint calculation and offsetting to their corporate clients
Having your carbon credits listed on the platform will gain visibility, earn more trust from interested customers and partners and develop your business.

Blockchain Technology

Applied to processes that already exist to transform the certification process into a transparent flow that helps identify the step in which a project is, without the possibility of change.

RED Standard supports ICVCM Principles

Start Exploring

Additionality

“The greenhouse gas emission reductions or removals from the mitigation activity shall be additional, i.e., they would not have occurred in the absence of the incentive created by carbon credit revenues.”

Mitigation activity information

“The carbon-crediting program shall provide comprehensive and transparent information on all credited mitigation activities. The information shall be publicly available in electronic format, and scrutiny of mitigation activities shall be accessible to non-specialised audiences”.

No double counting

“The greenhouse gas emission reductions or removals from the mitigation activity shall not be double-counted, i.e., they shall only be counted once towards achieving mitigation targets or goals. Double counting covers double issuance, double claiming, and double use.”

Cost-Effectiveness

The standard is accessible to companies who promote and implement sustainable projects without any discrimination, with flexible payment.

RED Blockchain
Carbon Standard Registry

Smart contracts and NFT solutions

Smart contracts and NFT solutions applied to tokenized carbon credits and RED-validated projects are secured on the Ethereum blockchain.

Carbon credits can be tracked

The carbon credits can be tracked and have only one owner at a time.

Each NFT is unique

Each NFT is unique and they are compatible with other systems built on Ethereum blockchain platforms.

NFTs can be sold anywhere

NFTs can be sold anywhere, and the owners have access to the global market.
Data such as project ID and name, the status of the project, SDGs, number of tokenized carbon credits issued, burnt and remaining will be accessible through the RED Registry explorer that will automatically present a project’s information or tokenized carbon credit status based on registered information on the blockchain.
Through the RED Carbon Standard Registry, RED Platform is also pioneering the way for other blockchain and standard sustainability-related companies to have access to the carbon credits issued under the RED Standard. The carbon credits management system will allow access to and from other blockchains, as well as allow other platforms to sell carbon credits on their websites even without blockchain technology.

Sustainability

We would like to give the new generations a better home to live in, and we consider that this is linked not only to environmental protection or ESG criteria but to maintaining the principles of life and its continuity. If all these principles are called by science sustainable actions, then we do believe in sustainability.

Value for all Users

By accounting for variables impacting our climate, our users will become environmentally conscious, which represents small, but essential steps to reaching carbon neutrality on a global scale.

Transition towards net-zero emissions

The mitigation activity shall avoid locking in levels of emissions, technologies or carbon intensive practices that are incompatible with achieving net zero emissions by mid-century.

Sustainable development impacts and safeguards

The carbon-crediting program shall have clear guidance, tools and compliance procedures to ensure mitigation activities conform with or go beyond widely established best industry best practices on social and environmental safeguards while delivering on net positive sustainable development impacts.

Robust quantification of emission reduction and removals

The greenhouse gas emission reductions or removals from the mitigation activity shall be robustly quantified, based on conservative approaches, completeness and sound scientific methods.

Robust independent third-party validation and verification

The carbon-crediting program shall have program-level requirements for robust independent third-party validation and verification of mitigation activities.

Registry

The carbon-crediting program shall operate or make use of a registry to uniquely identify, record and track mitigation activities and carbon credits issued to ensure credits can be identified securely and unambiguously.

Program governance

The carbon-crediting program shall have effective program governance to ensure transparency, accountability and the overall quality of carbon credits.

Permanence

The greenhouse gas emission reductions or removals from the mitigation activity shall be permanent, or if they have a risk of reversal, any reversals shall be fully compensated.

No double counting

The greenhouse gas emission reductions or removals from the mitigation activity shall not be double-counted, i.e., they shall only be counted once towards achieving mitigation targets or goals. Double counting covers double issuance, double claiming, and double use.
