Research on the Peer-to-Peer Market Transaction Mechanism of the Future Energy Systems

Peer-to-peer (P2P) market transaction mechanism is a promising approach to enable decentralized and efficient trading of energy in future energy systems. This paper provides a review of the P2P market transaction mechanism in the context of future energy systems. The review covers the fundamental principles of P2P energy trading, the technical requirements and challenges, the regulatory and policy frameworks, and the potential benefits and drawbacks. We also highlight some of the emerging trends and innovations in P2P energy trading, such as blockchain-based platforms, smart contracts, and artificial intelligence-based optimization. Finally, we identify some of the research gaps and future directions in P2P energy trading, such as the need for standardized protocols, the integration of renewable energy sources and energy storage systems, and the development of equitable and inclusive market structures.
