The future of blockchain is sustainable

Together we have made WAX a world leading carbon neutral blockchain.
A sustainable future is the only future.

What makes WAX efficient?

WAX is a third generation blockchain.
It is based on Delegated Proof of Stake consensus algorithm (DPoS)

The carbon footprint of WAX

WAX (DPoS) is a game changer.
Low power consumption yet delivering record breaking throughput.

0 Block Producers
0 Standby Producers
0 tonnes of CO2
0 Energy MWh

The above specify annual CO2 emissions and electricity

Offset the entire WAX carbon footprint, 211 tonnes of CO2 for 1 year

(21st May 2023 to 21st May 2024)
211 tonnes offset completed

Working together with &

EOS Authority is proud to have started this community initiative to make WAX the first major carbon neutral blockchain. We thank all the participating block producers & ClimateCare for helping make this possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are carbon credits?

    A carbon credit is a financial unit of measurement that allows organisations and individuals to support the transition to a low carbon future. Each carbon credit represents the removal of one tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e) from the atmosphere - roughly the monthly energy consumption of an average American household.

  • What are the annual emissions per BP.

    Each BP has an annual carbon emission of 7.025 tonnes based on the electricity usage of 15.7625 MWh for 1 year. We plan to reevaluate the CO2 emissions every year and keep WAX mainnet carbon neutral.
