Solana will regularly update its blockchain network carbon emission data

ChainCatcher news, the Solana Foundation announced today that Solana is now measuring data related to its carbon emissions in real time. Smart contracts hold the code that supports decentralized applications (dapps) and NFT projects. Starting today, Solana will regularly update a dedicated dashboard that includes statistics monitoring key environmental indicators of the network: energy consumption, carbon footprint, and network power intensity. It extracts real-time data from software installed on Solana validator nodes, but the dashboard is updated every two weeks. The carbon emissions data comes from an emissions tracker developed in collaboration with the carbon data platform Trycarbonara, collecting data from on-chain data as well as a representative sample directly from Solana validators.
