Abstract

This paper describes the development of a co-simulation of electricity distribution networks and blockchain-based for a transactive energy marketplace (TEM) framework for housing community. The venue used in this work as case study is the Education City Community Housing ECCH located in Doha, Qatar. First, we process the grid data for the purpose of modeling transactive energy systems. Second, we model the ECCH power network to build a digital twin model that will constitute the physical layer of a decentralized energy trading platform based on the blockchain technology. The blockchain interacts with the community grid to exchange electricity. The decentralized application was tested at a real-world Qatari microgrid using Hyperledger Fabric blockchain framework, to show the end to end connectivity for prosumers in a residential microgrid setting.
