  • Blockchain-Based Local Energy Markets
    Abstract CHRISTIDIS, KONSTANTINOS. Blockchain-Based Local Energy Markets. (Under the direction of Michael Devetsikiotis and Srdjan Lukic.) A growing customer base for solar-plus-storage at the grid edge has resulted in stronger interest at the regulatory level towards energy markets at the distribution level. Blockchains — systems that have been popularized recently by technologies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum — allow us to establish transparent marketplaces without the need for a central authority. This thesis investigates the feasibility of local energy markets (LEMs) running on blockchains, and also introduces a canonical framework for designing and evaluating blockchain-based LEMs — a first in this space. We begin by examining whether existing blockchain implementations are capable of supporting such markets. We dissect blockchains into their core components, perform an analytical survey on the space, and introduce a taxonomy for blockchain systems. Our findings suggest an impedance mismatch for our use case; we identify a number of integration issues for IoT applications, and offer workarounds where possible. Shifting back into the original goal of designing a realistic blockchain-based LEM, a common theme we find across all relevant literature is the treatment of the blockchain component as a black box. Armed with a proper understanding of the blockchain space from our earlier analysis, we make the case that this approach is flawed because the choices in this layer affect the market’s performance significantly. First, we explicitly identify the design space that the blockchain layer introduces, and analyze how the design choices made therein affect the performance, governance, and degree of decentralization of these markets.
