Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Clean Energy Connect is a legitimate, verified Japanese company specializing in B2B renewable energy solutions (Corporate PPA). While the external reality of the project indicates high utility, significant capital backing, and strong market timing, the submission itself is of very poor quality. Claims such as 'audience reach: everyone' and 'most people have used my product' are demonstrably false for a B2B industrial service, resulting in heavy penalties to Quality Factors. The score reflects a high-value business dragged down by a low-effort, inaccurate submission.
