Ripple’s growing presence in the Middle East now ties directly to one of the region’s most ambitious smart infrastructure projects, Trojena. Positioned within Saudi Arabia’s futuristic NEOM city, Trojena is set to host the 2029 Winter Olympics.
However, the area is being developed as more than just a destination; it is evolving into a fully programmable economy. Digital assets, renewable energy, and blockchain settlements are converging here to create a seamless financial and operational ecosystem.
Ripple’s technology and XRP are at the heart of this transformation.
Trojena Digital Grid Powers the Programmable Economy
Trojena is being designed with a next-generation power system that uses modular, decentralized infrastructure. This grid runs entirely on renewable sources, including solar, wind, and hydrogen, through ENOWA’s smart energy platform.
It operates independently with direct current converter technology, making it resilient and programmable.
This setup supports energy pricing in real time, tailored to usage, and integrated into smart contracts. According to online posts, this environment will allow for autonomous microsettlements and dynamic energy distribution that align with tokenized ownership.
