The Energy-Intensity Metric (Standard Unit: 10³ m³)
The Standardized Recovery Unit (SRU)
AquraIQ defines one Water Credit as the verified recovery of
one thousand cubic meters
(103 m3) of atmospheric or vapor moisture.
Unlike traditional volumetric offsets, our credits are
energy-indexed to reflect the actual thermodynamic work performed.
The valuation of each credit is derived from the
Net Energy Intensity (NEI)
measured during the recovery cycle:
By pegging 103 m3 to kWh, we create a
Price-Stable Asset.
It allows AI operators to treat water recovery as a predictable
energy-offset on their balance sheets, independent of local utility price fluctuations.
English Version
Every Aqura Water Credit represents the verified recovery of
103 m3 (one thousand cubic meters)
of vapor or atmospheric moisture within AI industrial infrastructures.
We anchor our credits to the Thermodynamic Baseline of
628 kWh/m3 (the physical constant for phase-change).
By measuring the actual energy expended against this baseline, our
DLU oracles compute the Water Efficiency Score (WES).
The protocol automatically scales the token issuance based on the energy source
and efficiency captured at the hardware level:
This energy-indexed approach converts a volatile operational expense
(cooling and water loss) into a Price-Stable Asset.
It provides a verifiable, audit-ready metric for Scope-3 sustainability reporting,
ensuring that 103 m3 of water recovered in desert environments
carries its true thermodynamic value.
