C/sells – Smart Grids for the Energy System of the Future – development of the Blockchain Roadmap

When C/sells was conceived in 2014/2015, blockchain technology was not yet known in the energy sector. However, the technology has advanced rapidly since then. It has the potential to represent a basic technology for a large number of applications in the energy sector. It is therefore advisable to pay more attention to the technology in C/sells as well.

As part of the top-up activity “Blockchain Roadmap”, LEA has set itself the goal of describing blockchain-compatible use cases in the C/sells context and examining the exemplary implementation of “Forgery-proof documentation of flexibility offers”. The resulting study built on the work of the C/sells Blockchain Task Force.

Tasks:

• Description of the blockchain use cases
• Exemplary implementation of a use case
• Networking
• Creation of the result document "Blockchain Roadmap"
