چکیده

فناوری بلاک‏چین طی سال‏های اخیر عرضه‏شده و کاربردهای آن به طور گسترده مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. این فناوری بیشتر با ارزهای دیجیتال (حذف واسطه‏ها و کاهش کارمزد تراکنش‏های مالی) شناخته می‏شود، ولی کاربردهای گستردۀ دیگری نیز دارد. از توانایی‏های این فناوری جدید می‏توان در حوزه‏های مختلفی، از جمله مهندسی انرژی، استفاده کرد. از آنجا که امروزه در بسیاری از کشورهای جهان سیستم برق‏رسانی در حال گذار از حالت متمرکز غیر تجدیدپذیر به تولید پراکندۀ تجدیدپذیر بازاری است، نیاز به استفاده از سیستم تسویه حسابی که بتواند مبادلات را در زمانی کوتاه، با کارمزد پایین و بدون محدودیت در حجم تبادلات انجام دهد، احساس می‏شود. این مقاله مروری بر فعالیت‏هایی است که با استفاده از فناوری بلاک‏چین در حوزۀ مبادلات انرژی انجام شده است. هدف از مطالعه، به دست آوردن مدل‏های تجاری کسب‏وکارهای فعال در این حوزه و در نظر گرفتن اهداف و چشم‏انداز آن‏ها در استفاده از این فناوری در حوزۀ بازار انرژی است. نتیجه این بررسی نشان می‏دهد ‏توسعۀ بازارهای پراکنده می‏تواند منجر به حمایت از تولیدکنندگان انرژی تجدیدپذیرشده و با آسان‏تر کردن تبادلات خرد، موانع مشارکت در بازار انرژی را کاهش دهد.

چکیده [English]

Blockchain technology has been introduced in recent years and its applications have been widely investigated. This technology is mostly known with digital currencies (removing intermediaries and reducing financial transaction fees), but it has other applications. The new technology can be used in various fields, including energy engineering. This is due to the fact that in many countries, the electricity supply system is transitioning from a centralized non-renewable state to a distributed renewable market one. Therefore, there is a need to use a settlement system that can make transactions in a short time, with low fees and without volume restrictions. This article is an overview of the activities that have been carried out using blockchain technology in the field of energy exchanges. The purpose of the study is to obtain business models of businesses active in this field and to consider their goals and prospects in using this technology in energy markets. The result of this study shows that the development of decentralized markets can lead to the support of renewable energy producers and reduce the barriers to participation in the energy market by making small exchanges easier.
