As world leaders debate how to reduce carbon emissions, Solana has outlined a realistic plan to achieve carbon neutrality. The Solana Foundation plans to launch a program that will support the creation of a network of green validators.
The platform promises to systematically report to the community on the energy efficiency and environmental friendliness of the project.
According to a study conducted by experts, Solana turned out to be more environmentally friendly than the popular Google browser. The cost of one transaction in the blockchain is only 0.00051 kWh or 1836 joules, which is less than the energy consumption of two Google queries, charging a mobile phone, or the energy consumption of an LED lamp per hour.
While the high energy consumption and carbon footprint of the crypto industry is actively criticized, Solana demonstrates a completely new trend in the eco-friendly crypto space.
