Abstract

With the development and application of energy Internet technology, the collaborative interaction of “source network, load and storage” has become the development trend of power grid dispatching. The large-scale access of renewable energy on the load side, the unified management of adjustable loads, and the participation of multiple parties in energy operations have put forward requirements for the safety, credibility, openness, and transparency of the load dispatching environment. Under the environment of carbon emission reduction, the paper proposed an architecture of the scheduling data blockchain, based on the in-depth study of blockchain. Moreover, smart contracts are used to realize the application scenario of load dispatching instruction evidence on the blockchain. The content and storage mode of scheduling instruction evidence on blockchain are studied. And different storage modes are adopted according to the actual needs. And the smart contract system realizes the evidence generation of power dispatching instruction. This is the basis for the normal circulation of power dispatching instruction evidence. The research significance of this paper is highlighted as follows. The data and information generated in the power dispatching process are stored as evidence. On the one hand, it can provide a basis for settlement between power production and dispatching companies and power users. On the other hand, it can prepare for distributed transactions in the power grid under the environment of carbon emission reduction.
