Claims Register

Public Claims — Indexed with Status

Every public quantitative or factual claim made by The Green Code framework, indexed with status, methodology reference, source document, and last review date. Use the filters to view claims by status category. This register is updated when claims are added, revised, or validated.

Register purpose: This index exists so that any reviewer — journalist, regulator, investor, or member of the public — can quickly identify the evidentiary status of any specific claim. Claims labeled PROJECTED or SIMULATED should not be represented as measured outcomes. Claims labeled PROPOSED reflect governance design, not implemented policy.

All Claims

ID Status Claim Source Reviewed
GC-001 VERIFIED
Framework Documents Published
The Green Code Policy White Paper, GCTS-1 Technical Standard, International Charter, and Implementation Roadmaps are published and publicly downloadable.
Evidence Room July 2026
GC-002 VERIFIED
Texas County Pilot Proposal Submitted
A formal 90-day pilot proposal has been submitted to Texas County, Oklahoma municipal and county parties. The proposal document is publicly available.
Pilot Doc April 2026
GC-003 VERIFIED
Ogallala Aquifer Under Documented Stress
The Ogallala Aquifer, which underlies Texas County, OK, is documented by USGS and academic research as having a recharge rate significantly lower than current extraction rates in agricultural regions.
USGS 2026
GC-004 VERIFIED
AI Data Centers Consume Significant Water
Large-scale AI data center operations require substantial water for cooling. Published research documents water consumption in the range of millions of gallons annually for major facilities.
Framework WP 2026
GC-010 PROJECTED
50 MW Node: Projected Water Efficiency Improvement
Engineering models project that a SYNC 3.0 50 MW node deployment can achieve significant water efficiency improvement versus conventional cooling under Oklahoma grid conditions. The specific ratio is a model output, not a field measurement. Referenced in engineering simulation documents.
OK Simulation 2026
GC-011 PROJECTED
Compute Dividend — Projected Municipal Revenue
The proposed Compute Dividend mechanism is projected to generate annual revenue for the host municipality based on modeled efficiency savings. The financial model is documented in the SYNC Subscription Model document. Figures are engineering projections, not audited forecasts.
Financial Model April 2026
GC-012 PROJECTED
ZKP Verification Target Latency: <20 ms
The Zero-Knowledge Proof verification architecture is designed for sub-20ms latency. This is an engineering design target derived from reference hardware benchmarks. São Paulo or Oklahoma grid conditions have not been tested. The target is not a deployed field measurement and no controlled lab measurement has been conducted.
GCTS-1 July 2026
GC-013 PROJECTED
ROI / Payback Period Estimates
Any payback period or ROI figure associated with SYNC 3.0 node deployment (including figures cited in press summaries) is an output of the engineering and financial models in the proposal documents. These are design-phase projections. Independent financial audit has not occurred.
Investor Doc July 2026
GC-020 PROPOSED
50 MW Absolute Compute Cap
The Green Code proposes a 50 MW ceiling as the maximum compute draw for a single SYNC-authorized node. This is a governance design parameter in the framework documents, not a currently enforceable regulation.
GCTS-1 2026
GC-021 PROPOSED
Ecological Kill-Switch
The framework proposes an automated compute throttle triggered when local aquifer extraction exceeds recharge rate. This is a governance design proposal — no kill-switch is currently deployed or legally enforceable.
About / Jevons July 2026
GC-022 PROPOSED
NBR ≥ 1.0 Mandatory Disclosure Threshold
The framework proposes that any facility seeking SYNC authorization must demonstrate NBR ≥ 1.0. This threshold is a governance proposal. No regulatory body has adopted or enforced it.
NBR Methodology 2026
GC-023 PROPOSED
Green Code Foundation (501c3)
The Green Code Foundation is proposed as the independent governance body for the framework. It is currently in the process of 501c3 incorporation. It does not yet exist as a legal entity with governance authority.
Governance July 2026
GC-024 PROPOSED
API-Level Real-Time Telemetry Requirement
GCTS-1 proposes that water and energy consumption be disclosed via open API in near-real-time for every major AI inference event. This is a proposed technical requirement, not a currently implemented or enforced standard.
GCTS-1 2026
GC-030 SIMULATED
82% Acoustic Resonance Detection Rate
The 82% acoustic resonance detection figure is a modelled output from engineering simulations under reference conditions (Delhi Metro Blue Line vibration scenario). It is not a live field measurement. Referenced in SABESP deployment documentation.
SABESP Doc July 2026
GC-031 SIMULATED
State-Level Efficiency Simulations (TX, OK, CA, FL, NV, NY, IL, CO, VA)
Simulation outputs for SYNC 3.0 node performance in nine US states, modelled against publicly available grid, climate, and infrastructure data. These are computational projections, not field measurements.
Evidence Room 2026
GC-032 SIMULATED
Water Efficiency Ratio (Engineering Model)
The water efficiency ratio referenced in engineering documents (expressed as a ratio of water used to water recovered per unit of AI computation) is derived from a thermodynamic engineering model. It has not been independently validated in field conditions.
Water Brief May 2026
GC-040 PENDING AUDIT
NBR Framework Validity
The Net Benefit Ratio formula, Bv categories, attribution logic, and confidence framework are published and available for review. Independent peer review and academic audit have not yet been initiated.
NBR Methodology 2026
GC-041 PENDING AUDIT
GCTS-1 Technical Standard Completeness
The GCTS-1 technical standard is published but has not been independently reviewed by an engineering standards body. Claims about its measurement boundaries and audit thresholds reflect the authors' current design intent, pending external technical review.
