能源互联网中基于区块链的能源交易

区块链技术是比特币的底层技术,具有公平、透明及去中心化的特点。能源互联网具有开放互联、以用户为中心和分布式对等共享的特点,且其能源交易模式也将由集中式向分布式发展。区块链技术的特点使得其天然地适用于能源互联网中的能源交易。首先对现有能源系统下的能源交易特点及在能源互联网下实施新型能源交易模式需要解决的难点进行了分析;然后,基于现有研究和分析设计了一种基于区块链的3层能源交易架构,并引入弱中心化的管理方式,以应对去中心化带来的问题;最后,对区块链在能源交易中应用需要解决的问题和面临的挑战进行了分析。

Blockchain Based Energy Trading in Energy Internet

Blockchain is the underlying technology of Bitcoin, and is characterized by fairness, transparency and decentralization.While the energy Internet has some new features which are openness, interconnection, user-centricity, distribution, sharing and equality, the trading model in energy Internet will transform into distributed model from the centralized one.And the characteristics of blockchain technology make it suitable for energy trading in the energy Internet.First, this paper analyses the characteristics of energy trading in the existing energy system, and the problems of new energy trading model in the energy Internet.Second, a three-tiered energy trading architecture based on blockchain is designed according to the existing researches and analysis, in which the less-centralized management is introduced to handle with problems and difficulties brought by decentralization.Finally, the problems and challenges in the application of blockchain in energy trading are analyzed and summarized.
