We're excited to share that OpenVPP World has now been running in production for nearly six months!
🌐 https://t.co/987HCOZB2B
Extraordinary user adoption and network growth have been key drivers of massive success, surpassing several major milestones:
-Over $30M in Tokenized RWAs.
-More than 800 MWh delivered.
-1.9 million+ miles driven.
-Over 600 metric tons of CO₂ offset.
These achievements reflect the power of a growing decentralized energy ecosystem and the community that continues to support it.
Today, we want to spotlight one of the network's top contributors whose participation has helped drive meaningful impact across OpenVPP World:

As grid operators begin to ramp up during summer demand response season globally, the OpenVPP $OVPP World Platform flywheel begins.
Instantaneously taking data center, EV charging, and BTC mining loads of the grid and in select areas, exporting to the grid to help balance supply and demand on the hottest days, preventing catastrophic events such as wild fires.

Energy now settles at the speed of electrons through the Internet of Energy.
Good teams never stop grinding that’s what we being experiencing at $OVPP
Another milestone achieved and so many more to come
Looking good so far matter of time we see $OVPP on a solid run
@OpenVPP
Incredible to see how strong the OpenVPP network is becoming. What a journey to say the least.
500 MWHs onchain.
450 Metric tons of CO2 offset.
$30M in tokenized EVs as RWAs.
This is just the beginning.
🌐 $OVPP x $USDC x $USDE
Introducing OpenVPP 2.0.
Electric reimagined.
Over the past quarter we’ve added 300+ electric vehicles, growing 750% QoQ and tokenizing $25M in RWAs. We’ve now proven out the first at-scale global virtual power plant.
The next chapter of OpenVPP starts today — $OVPP is moving to Base. Over the coming weeks we will be releasing more of our future roadmap from product to partnerships and beyond.
Look out for updates here on next steps and get ready for what will become the new age of electricity.

AMARA is scaling deeper into real carbon markets.
We’re proud to welcome Dr. Stefan Kermer (PhD) as an official advisor to AMARA.
Stefan is the Founder of Carbon Insights, delivering EU ETS quantitative analytics in the world’s largest carbon market. His work combines proprietary fundamental data with technical, sentiment, and macro frameworks from demand nowcasting and forward forecasts to intraday auction signals and systematic EUA analysis.
This is direct exposure to how carbon is actually priced.
10+ years across EU, UK, UAE, and US energy & climate markets.
Former Head of Innovation & Strategic Projects at Wien Energie (Austria’s largest utility).
Led 30+ startup collaborations from pilot to scale.
Initiated and guided multiple spin-offs.
Project Lead for the Decarbonization Strategy of the City of Vienna.
Managed large-scale renewable & district heating investment analysis.
Built and deployed real-time flexibility trading software for energy markets.
Structured institutional-grade renewable financing (incl. large-scale export guarantees).
PhD Researcher in Energy Economics (London Business School).
Deep expertise in EU ETS, ARIMA, LSTM, XGBoost, systematic modeling, and applied market intelligence.
As AMARA builds carbon infrastructure across Base and beyond, this isn’t just advisory optics.
This is EU ETS depth.
This is institutional energy capital.
This is infrastructure-grade execution.
Carbon markets are complex.
We’re bringing in operators who’ve built inside them.
Welcome to the mission, Stefan.

The wait is over.
Amara officially launches on Wednesday, February 11th at 8 AM EST.
After months of building and testing, the protocol is ready to go live.
Key details:
- $AMARA launches on Base
Liquidity will live on Base, with seamless bridging to Odyssey. You’ll be able to hold and use $AMARA across both Base and Odyssey.
- Bridge status
The bridge goes live on Friday 13th Feb. It will be released shortly after, following additional checks.
- Staking
$AMARA staking is already active on Odyssey. Staking enables protocol participation and incentive alignment and will continue post-launch.
What launches on February 11
- The Token on BASE
- The initial phase of the network
Expansion follows.
We’re excited to enter this next phase.
Thank you to everyone who supported us throughout the process.
See you on February 11 🚀
Strong systems work when incentives, behavior, and outcomes point in the same direction. When those pieces are misaligned, friction shows up in subtle ways and grows over time.
Designing alignment into the system reduces the need for constant correction. 🌱
