Research on Blockchain Technology Based Energy Trading Architecture Model

Blockchain technology, the underlying technology of Bitcoin, has the characteristics of fairness, transparency and decentralization. These features can enable its participation in energy trading in the context of energy internet. In this paper, we first analyze the transaction characteristics under the traditional energy trading structure and analyze the difficulties faced in implementing the new energy trading method; then, we design a 3-tier energy trading structure based on blockchain based on existing research and analysis; finally, we introduce a weakly centralized management method to improve the trading level.
