전력분야의 블록체인 적용 사례분석을 통한 대규모 전력서비스 적용 가능성 연구

Abstract

Blockchain technology is one of the core technologies that will lead the fourth industrial revolution, and the blockchain platform is expected to occupy more than 10% of global GDP within the next 10 years. The blockchain technology is mainly promoted in the financial field in early stage, but recently, many pilot projects have been promoted in the energy field, mainly in the electric power companies around the world. In this paper, we briefly review the futures of the blockchain technology and examine the advantages and disadvantages of the public and private blockchains. And we will try to look at the direction of the future by comparing the types and futures of the blockchains applied in this energy sector. Finally, it is intended to provide some guidance in applying blockchain technologies to the power energy sector in the future by providing an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of applying them.
