| WACC Compression | 400 bps compression (8.67% → 4.67%) |
Substituting trust-based corporate self-reporting with automated cryptographic audit trails compresses WACC by 400 bps, delivering €316 M / yr in interest service savings.
Figure reflects TIAKI E2E test-run output for this vertical and sits inside the 80–450 bps platform corridor (platform-weighted base ≈ 265 bps) disclosed in the Board Memo (see Memorandum § Z.3 WACC Sensitivity and § Z.4 Evidence Index).
Cryptographic Governance Topology
- Melt-Shop Telemetry · Hydrogen Flow / Electric Arc Furnace Logs
- TIAKI Core · Source-of-Truth Ledger / Shadow Registry Twin
- Automated Data-Smoothing & Intervention Intercept
- eIDAS-Grade HSM · Batch-Specific Birth Certificate
- Independent Auditor Node · Statutory Third-Party Attestation
- Regulator Read-API · CBAM Registry / EU Taxonomy Digital Passport
Nodes 1–4 execute autonomously within the 5-second operational heartbeat (paper <3s, physical <800ms). Nodes 5–6 are human-audited and digitally signed. No regulator receives raw telemetry — only the signed attestation hash.
Capital Compression Mechanics
Legacy corporate reporting in green steel operates on a retrospective 12-to-18-month audit lag dominated by unsigned PDFs and consultant assessments. That delay creates a structural blind spot in which data-smoothing, double-counting, and undetected regulatory breaches compound into balance-sheet liability.
TIAKI replaces this with an immutable infrastructure enforcing information symmetry at a 5-second tick: hardware-inferred ingestion, immediate cryptographic pinning inside eIDAS-grade HSMs, and continuous divergence adjudication by the 17-agent ecosystem against 1,550+ verified data sources.
For Tier-1 lenders and underwriters, this transforms volatile physical operations into a deterministic financial asset class — eradicating litigation reserves under CSDDD and SFDR Article 9, collateralising provenance, and compressing secondary spreads.
The 400 bps compression (8.67% → 4.67%) reduction in green steel WACC is not a qualitative discount; it is a mathematically justified adjustment to legacy risk premiums, shifting the capital-cost curve permanently in favour of sovereign-aligned operators.
