Business Model
Quantum Grid's business model leverages solar energy to power hardware and offers discounted GPU resources through a decentralized, token-based system.
Our model operates on a dual energy system where we produce solar energy to minimize costs, and users only pay for the energy they consume, ensuring affordability and sustainability.
1. Solar Energy Production
Quantum Grid produces a portion of the energy used to power our hardware through solar energy. This helps reduce reliance on traditional energy sources, making the platform more sustainable and cost-efficient. The energy generated is used to power our GPU grid, offering a greener computing option.
Reduced Energy Costs: Users only need to pay for the energy not covered by our solar panels.
2. Use our GPU Grid at Discounted Price
Our self-sustainable energy production model lets you access computational power at discounted prices. This is particularly beneficial for energy-intensive tasks like AI training, simulations, and rendering.
Energy-Efficient Hardware: With solar energy covering part of the consumption, the overall costs are reduced for the end-user.
4. Flexible Payment for Energy Consumption
The payment model is simple and cost-effective:
Users pay ~35% of the energy consumed. The rest of the energy is covered by the solar energy Quantum Grid generates, keeping costs low.
The exact x% is dynamically adjusted based on exact solar energy production at that time and can be reduced further through QUANT staking.
5. Liquidating sQUANT
Users have the flexibility to liquidate their sQUANT at any time, stopping their rental agreement.
Rental Halts: When sQUANT is liquidated, the rental process halts, and any staked QUANT tokens are burned, reducing the total supply and increasing token value.
6. Burn Mechanism and Suppply Control
As a unique feature of the Quantum Grid platform, when users liquidate their sQUANT, their staked QUANT tokens are burned. This creates a deflationary mechanism that could increase the value of the remaining QUANT tokens over time.

With the combination of solar energy generation and our QUANT token staking model, Quantum Grid offers an innovative solution that reduces energy costs and encourages sustainability in the world of decentralized hardware. Quantum Grid’s business model is designed to balance sustainability, affordability, and high-performance computing through a combination of solar energy, token staking, and deflationary economics.
