SDG Monitoring

The Emerging Household Energy uses decentralized Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (dMRV) to track SDG indicators through:

• Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) for entities
• Verifiable claims and credentials
• Oracle-based validation
• Ex-post and ex-ante data collection

​

Core Components

​

Entity DIDs

Each participant (household, business, project) has a unique DID that links to their claims and credentials.

​

Claims & Credentials

• Claims: Data records about an entity (e.g., fuel purchases, survey responses)
• Credentials: Verified claims that are cryptographically signed and stored on the ledger

​

Oracles

Validation agents that verify claims using:

• External APIs
• Sensor data
• Survey forms
• Partner databases

​

Data Collection Methods

• Ex-Ante: Baseline data collected before intervention
• Ex-Post: Follow-up data collected at defined intervals

​

SDG Implementation Guide

​

SDG 1: No Poverty

Indicator: Annual household fuel cost savings

Data Flow:

1. Register household DID
2. Record fuel purchase claims
3. Oracle validates payments
4. Issue savings credentials

​

SDG 7: Clean Energy Access

Indicator: Modern cooking device adoption rate

Data Flow:

1. Log fuel purchase claims
2. Calculate usage thresholds
3. Validate through oracles
4. Generate adoption credentials

​

SDG 13: Climate Action

Indicator: GHG emission reductions

Data Flow:

1. Collect device usage data
2. Validate emission calculations
3. Issue ITMO credentials
4. Maintain audit trail

​

Security

The platform ensures data integrity through:

• Cryptographic signatures on all claims
• Immutable ledger records
• Role-based access control
• Privacy-preserving data handling
