HELIUS: A Blockchain Based Renewable Energy Trading System

Energy consumed during the peak demand period contributes the most towards the energy bill. There has been a substantial amount of research performed to solve the issue. This paper explores a peer-to-peer (P2P) sustainable energy exchange system using Blockchain and Deep learning algorithms. The main objective of this paper is to provide a general framework to design such a system with varying advanced components and their interaction. The proposed model is a novel mechanism for power system operations allowing users to trade energy during peak loads. The model also simulates sustainable energy production provided the system components and other respective variables for example location, time, and weather. The proposed system is integrated with a blind bidding mechanism and accompanying web application to demonstrate the feasibility in a real-world environment.
