Episode 106: One Token at a Time: Investing in Renewable Energy

In this episode of the 2Tokens Podcast, host Alex Bausch sits down with Meindert Jansberg, co-founder of EnergyBlocks (formerly Assetblocks), to explore how blockchain technology is being used to open up clean energy investments to a broader audience. EnergyBlocks offers tokenized green bonds that provide a 6.5% annual return, with a fully digital and automated onboarding, investment, and reporting process. Though powered by blockchain, the platform is designed for simplicity—making it easy for retail investors to participate without dealing with crypto directly.

Meindert explains how their offerings are MiFID-compliant, legally protected, and currently available to European investors, with a minimum investment starting at €5,000. The company is also preparing to launch an equity product, offering potentially higher returns and a deeper connection to project performance.

Alex and Meindert also discuss the future of energy tokenization, including the concept of tracking and settling energy usage via blockchain, the regulatory challenges of turning kilowatt hours into tokens, and the exciting prospects for tokenized energy storage in batteries. It’s a candid look at the practical, legal, and technical layers behind real-world asset tokenization.
