Efficient Integration Model of MAS and Blockchain for emergence of Self-Organized Smart Grids

Abstract

This paper introductory presents a multi agent system model that uses blockchain as the basic technology for successful integration of advanced management solutions into a smart grid environment, realized through the SEGIP project. The paper explains the need for innovative management solutions and provides an overview of energy exchange based on peer-to-peer trading. Additionally, the paper covers the role of a multi-agent system in effective integration and outlines the structure of the proposed project solution. The functioning of such a smart grid is explained through a description of the roles and interactions of different actors, and a smart contract proposal is described through an example of a transaction between different types of network nodes. The conclusion completes everything presented in the paper and confirms the validity of the presented approach.
