The energy expenditure of Pecu Novus is significantly lower than that of other blockchain networks, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. This is due to a number of factors, including: #
-
Proof of Time (PoT): Pecu Novus uses a novel consensus mechanism called PoT, which is designed to be more energy-efficient than traditional PoW or PoS mechanisms. PoT does not require miners to solve complex mathematical problems, which reduces the amount of energy required to secure the network. #
-
Sharding: Pecu Novus uses sharding to divide the network into smaller groups of validators. This allows the network to process more transactions per second without increasing its energy consumption. #
-
Renewable Energy: Pecu Novus is working on a plan of action that would allow the network in the near future to further power the network with renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power with global partners and Bitcoin miners. This will help to further reduce the network’s carbon footprint. #
