2.4 Energy sector


Although the application of blockchain in energy technology is fewer compared with other fields, it is widely favored. The application of energy blockchain technology has been mature. In April 2016, an energy company in the United States, LO3 Company, cooperated with Siemens Digital Grid to establish a blockchain-based smart grid, Brooklyn Microgrid, which is the world’s earliest energy blockchain application; the European Union’s Scanergy project is based on Ethereum’s smart contract platform to enhance the trustworthiness of transactions and ensure transaction security; the German Share&''Charge project uses blockchain and its distributed ledger technology to achieve transaction transparency. Besides, there are other projects such as the Fremantle project in Australia, the Sun Exchange project in Africa, and the smart microgrid project in Israel.

Energy blockchain has broad prospects. It can not only promote the development of clean energy, but also improve energy efficiency and transaction efficiency, promoting the development of the energy Internet and bringing new dimensions to power transactions.
