When it comes to consensus mechanisms, Proof-of-Work (PoW) is often dubbed as a relic of the past that is being replaced with other mechanisms such as Proof-of-Stake (PoS). The most common argument against PoW blockchains is that they are just too energy-intensive and costly. I’m sure you’ve heard this narrative if you’ve been in crypto […]

TOKYO, Jan 7, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - JERA Co., Inc. ("JERA") and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. ("MHI") have received notice of acceptance of their grant application, under the Green Innovation Fund program of the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization ("NEDO"), to conduct a project to develop and demonstrate a technology to increase the ammonia co-firing rate at coal-fired boilers (the "Project").

Ammonia enables efficient, low-cost transport and storage of hydrogen. In addition to this role as an energy carrier, it can also be used directly as a fuel in thermal power generation. As a fuel that does not emit carbon dioxide when burned, ammonia is expected to offer great advantages in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In order to achieve a decarbonized society, it is important to reduce CO2 emissions from thermal power generation by innovating to increase the co-firing rate of fuel ammonia.

This Project aims to develop an ammonia single-fuel burner suitable for coal-fired boilers and to demonstrate operation of the burner at actual boilers. The term of the Project is approximately 8 years from FY 2021 to FY 2028.

By FY 2024, JERA and MHI will develop a new burner capable of single-fuel ammonia combustion and draw up a master plan for equipment to demonstrate its use in actual boilers. Based on the results, the two companies will decide whether to install the burners at JERA's coal-fired boilers made by MHI. For the actual plant demonstrations, JERA and MHI plan to verify co-firing with at least 50% ammonia at two units with different boiler types by FY 2028.

Under its "JERA Zero CO2 Emissions 2050" objective, JERA has been working to reduce CO2 emissions from its domestic and overseas businesses to zero by 2050, promoting the adoption of greener fuels and pursuing thermal power that does not emit CO2 during power generation. JERA will continue to contribute to energy industry decarbonization through its own proactive efforts to develop decarbonization technologies while ensuring economic rationality.

Under its "MISSION NET ZERO" declaration, MHI will promote the energy transition in cooperation with partners around the world, and contribute to achieving a carbon-neutral society through the collective efforts of the group by its products, technologies, and services that can contribute to CO2 reduction.

The Hot Potatoes metaverse is a closed-doors gaming world where only HPs holders can compete for the bi-yearly grand prize of the game in a true play-to-win elimination style tournament. 

Each extravagant Hot Potato possesses rare pre-defined traits acquired by interacting with humanity. These attributes include elements that might resemble some of the most extravagant real world characters of our time.   

There is also a category of exclusive HPs with ultra-rare features and names such as HPs that resemble some of the most iconic and historical characters for each country or community. Some examples include Hot Potato Trump, Hot Potato Napoleon, Hot Potato Gandhi. and Hot Potato Marylin Monroe. The attributes of each NFT determine its rarity and value. 

Holders of the most unique NFTs better their chances of surviving and claiming huge prizes starting from 12 ETH per winner in each six-month-long game. 

Pre-Register for the HPs Sale to Access the First NFTs

The game developers have opened the pre-registration phase for investors wishing to join the PotatoVerse and be the first to hold exclusive and valuable NFTs. Pre-registered users will have early access to the upcoming pre-sale event, which will offer the first batch of HPs for minting.

The pre-registration form is currently accessible on the Hot Potatoes official website. Early-bird investors will be whitelisted to participate in the pre-sale and bag up to 5 limited collection NFTs. The pre-sale is scheduled to take place one week before the Public Mint Date.  

Following the pre-sale event, most of the remaining HPs will be released to the public for sale, opening the door for the official launch of the PotatoVerse in Q2 2022. Private and public sale participants can create awesome NFTs at an initial mint price of 0.05 ETH and view their digital artwork on their Metamask wallet or on the Hot Potatoes website.

Gamers on the Hot Potatoes metaverse  can mint an unlimited number of NFTs. The more HPs a user mints, the higher their chance of getting a rare NFT with the potential to acquire rare attributes and appreciate over time. Holding more HPs also increases the chances of surviving to the end and grabbing the final prize. 

Hot Potatoes Are Tradable on OpenSea

Users who mint HPs can sell, collect and exchange their exclusive digital collections on OpenSea, the biggest NFT marketplace. Gaming enthusiasts and NFT investors who miss out on the pre-sale events can purchase these HPs exclusively on the popular market and earn the right to join the PotatoVerse. 

Note that only HPs bought from OpenSea are eligible to join the game. That is because transactions on the leading NFT marketplace support royalties that enrich the final prize pool and fund game creation and development. 

Crypto users can also access HPs from a special releases pool that will be excluded from the Token sale event. The project backers will release these reserved collectibles in the form of future NFT injections into the market and airdrops to community members. 

The game developers are committed to creating a new world of NFT - based gaming. Their platform combines the value and rarity of digital collectibles with the fun and competitiveness of high-stakes play to win gaming.
