The Concept | Kiwah
A community is like an engine; it makes things happen. The Kiwah is its fuel. Kiwah is a special purpose currency, designed to enable transactions between people, groups and companies that actively want to build a society that is CO2 slim and based on an inclusive world. The unit of account is the Kilowatt-Hour.
