Energi Mine is a United Kingdom based blockchain technology company, that develops products in the energy management sector.[1][2] It uses deep learning artificial intelligence models to trade and manage energy.[3][4] In February 2018, Energi Mine completed an initial coin offering (ICO).[5][6][7]

Energi Mine has a blockchain-driven platform that decentralizes the global energy market by incentivizing energy conservation.[8][9] Consumers and organisations are issued with ETK Tokens to reward energy efficient behavior.[10][11][12] The tokens can be used to pay electricity bills, buy energy-efficient appliances and take public transport.[13][14]

The company was founded in 2016 by Omar Rahim, who serves as its CEO.[15][16][17] Energi Mine was covered in the news when it appointed an AI robot, Sasha to its management board to make algorithmic decisions.[18][19]
