Xpansiv, a global infrastructure provider for energy transition markets, has announced a phased initiative to enable the tokenisation of environmental assets and related performance data on the Canton Network — an institutional-grade blockchain designed for regulated financial markets.
As institutional investors increasingly adopt blockchain-based financial systems, Xpansiv aims to enhance its infrastructure to support authenticated asset-level data, issuance, and performance-linked financial instruments. The initiative is intended to deliver scalable, compliant and interoperable solutions across the energy transition economy.
The programme will begin with a pilot phase integrating Xpansiv’s database of standardised, immutable digital identifiers — including those covering real-world, utility-grade renewable energy generation assets — with the Canton Network. The process will employ Fiùtur’s SMART Protocol to enable secure, permissioned data sharing across platforms. This will demonstrate how verified asset-level data can underpin performance-linked financing and new financial products, complete with auditable reporting.
“Trillions of dollars are required to finance the energy transition, and tokenisation presents a significant emerging pathway for capital deployment,” said John Melby, Chief Executive Officer of Xpansiv. “By connecting our infrastructure to Canton’s institutional-grade blockchain, we’re creating new distribution channels and laying the groundwork for trusted, interoperable transition finance.”
Yuval Rooz, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Asset, creator of the Canton Network, said: “Xpansiv’s initiative is a pivotal step toward connecting trusted real-world data with the on-chain institutional finance ecosystem. This approach not only enhances integrity by anchoring physical assets on-chain but also opens the door to scalable, performance-linked financing that can reshape how global markets operate.”
Xpansiv is collaborating with distributed-ledger technology (DLT) infrastructure firm Fiùtur to support the initiative. Fiùtur’s SMART Protocol will be used to create and manage asset and performance tokens via Smart IDs, ensuring compatibility with the Canton Network’s privacy-preserving architecture.
