Ethereum-based protocol Glow has raised $30 million from venture capital firms to scale up its decentralized solar farms.

基於以太坊的協議 Glow 已從風險投資公司籌集了 3000 萬美元，用於擴大其去中心化太陽能發電場的規模。

The round was led by Framework Ventures and Union Square Ventures, with participation from Lattice Ventures, Protocol Labs, Hack VC, HF0 and Alliance DAO.

According to an Oct. 31 announcement, the funds will support the scale of a solar grid that is expected to replace the energy consumption of 34,000 homes in India.

根據 10 月 31 日的公告，這筆資金將支持太陽能電網的規模，預計將取代印度 34,000 戶家庭的能源消耗。

“In less than a year, Glow has grown from a rooftop solar project in the US to a network with several multimillion-dollar solar farms in India. The solar farms that have already been built are projected to eliminate more than 85,000 tons of CO2 emissions over their lifetime,” said David Vorick, founder and CEO of Glow Labs.

「在不到一年的時間裡，Glow 已經從美國的一個屋頂太陽能計畫發展成為一個擁有印度數個數百萬美元太陽能發電場的網路。已建成的太陽能發電廠預計在其使用壽命內可減少超過 85,000 噸二氧化碳排放。

DePIN protocols — or decentralized physical infrastructure networks — leverage blockchain technology to allow individuals to collectively own, maintain, and profit from infrastructure like solar energy grids, wireless networks, and data storage systems. Participants contributing with physical resources, such as energy nodes, are rewarded through digital tokens, making it economically viable and scalable.

DePIN 協議（或去中心化實體基礎設施網路）利用區塊鏈技術，讓個人共同擁有、維護太陽能電網、無線網路和資料儲存系統等基礎設施並從中獲利。貢獻實體資源（例如能源節點）的參與者將透過數位代幣獲得獎勵，使其在經濟上可行且可擴展。

According to data compiled by DePIN.Ninja, Glow is the most profitable DePIN network, with over $3.5 million in revenue accrued since its beta launch in 2023 — placing it ahead of popular systems such as the Helium network.

根據 DePIN.Ninja 彙編的數據，Glow 是最賺錢的 DePIN 網絡，自 2023 年測試版推出以來累計收入超過 350 萬美元，領先於 Helium 網路等流行系統。

Glow claims to have a slightly higher revenue of $5 million, thanks to a recent expansion over the past 40 days in Rajasthan, India.

Glow 聲稱，由於過去 40 天內在印度拉賈斯坦邦的擴張，其收入略高，為 500 萬美元。

Solar farms in the Glow network are rewarded with GLW tokens for their electricity output, as well as with stablecoins rewards for their carbon credits. According to the startup, its incentive model prioritizes rewards for solar farms that generate the most environmental impact, targeting regions where their clean energy can most effectively offset high carbon emissions.

Glow 網路中的太陽能發電場因其電力輸出而獲得 GLW 代幣獎勵，並因其碳信用額而獲得穩定幣獎勵。據該新創公司稱，其激勵模式優先獎勵對環境影響最大的太陽能發電場，目標是清潔能源能夠最有效抵消高碳排放的地區。

Another DePIN protocol working on decentralized energy is Power Ledger, enabling peer-to-peer energy trading by allowing consumers to sell excess energy directly to their neighbors.

另一個致力於去中心化能源的 DePIN 協議是 Power Ledger，它允許消費者直接向鄰居出售多餘的能源，從而實現點對點能源交易。

“We think DePIN can be a powerful tool for rolling out physical infrastructure across the world,” said Michael Anderson, co-founder of Framework Ventures.

Framework Ventures 聯合創始人 Michael Anderson 表示：“我們認為 DePIN 可以成為在全球範圍內推廣實體基礎設施的強大工具。”
