论文摘要
在点对点(P2P)能源交易中,需要有担保的基础设施来管理贸易和记录货币交易。可以将中央服务器/权威用于此。但是中央当局有影响能源价格的风险。因此,区块链技术被首选为P2P交易中的安全基础设施。区块链提供分布式存储库以及用于贸易管理的智能合约。这减少了中央权力在交易中的影响。但是,这些基于区块链的系统仍然依靠中央权力来将/匹配卖家与消费者配对以进行交易。中央权威可以干预匹配过程,以获取一组选定的用户。此外,集中权力还为其服务收取费用,从而增加了能源成本。我们提出了两种分布式机制,以将卖家与消费者相匹配。第一种机制不允许卖方与消费者之间的价格谈判,而第二个机制则不允许进行。我们还计算了两种机制的时间复杂性和匹配过程的稳定性。使用模拟,我们比较了拟议机制和现有机制之间集中控制和能源价格的影响。总体工作努力促进自由市场并降低能源价格。
In peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading, a secured infrastructure is required to manage trade and record monetary transactions. A central server/authority can be used for this. But there is a risk of central authority influencing the energy price. So blockchain technology is being preferred as a secured infrastructure in P2P trading. Blockchain provides a distributed repository along with smart contracts for trade management. This reduces the influence of central authority in trading. However, these blockchain-based systems still rely on a central authority to pair/match sellers with consumers for trading energy. The central authority can interfere with the matching process to profit a selected set of users. Further, a centralized authority also charges for its services, thereby increasing the cost of energy. We propose two distributed mechanisms to match sellers with consumers. The first mechanism doesn't allow for price negotiations between sellers and consumers, whereas the second does. We also calculate the time complexity and the stability of the matching process for both mechanisms. Using simulation, we compare the influence of centralized control and energy prices between the proposed and the existing mechanisms. The overall work strives to promote the free market and reduce energy prices.
