Russia Turns Electricity Revenues Into Digital “Energy Tokens”
In a first for the country, energy cash flows will be converted into blockchain-based assets, opening new opportunities for investors in the energy sector.
At the Russian Energy Week 2025 forum in Moscow, Rosnano, Interros, and T-Investments signed an agreement to tokenize an energy facility in the Arctic, according to T-Bank’s press service. The pilot project, set for 2026, will transform the financial flows from power generation and distribution into energy tokens — digital financial assets.
According to Stanislav Bliznyuk, head of T-Bank, the project gives investors not only “access to income from a specific energy facility,” but also “a tool for portfolio diversification and an effective way to preserve capital.”
From kilowatt to crypto-equivalent
The tokens will be available to clients of T-Investments and issued via Atomize, Russia’s first licensed digital financial asset (DFA) platform. Atomize already operates as a registered system for issuing tokenized financial products.
Atomize’s CEO added that, in the future, energy tokens could become “the equivalent of a kilowatt of energy — and even a means of payment for utilities.”
If successful, the experiment could mark the start of a new era of digital investment, where energy, finance, and blockchain converge to redefine how infrastructure is built and funded.
