“…In distributed peer-to-peer (P2P) applications for the IoT, the IoT devices self-organize and cooperate for a new breed of applications such as collaborative movies, forwarding files, delivering messages, electronic commerce, and uploading data using sensor networks. To incentivize users for cooperation, He et al [42] proposed a truthful incentive mechanism based on the blockchain technique for dynamic and distributed P2P environments. To prevent selfish users and defend against the collusion attacks, this scheme proposed a pricing strategy, which allows intermediate nodes to obtain rewards from blockchain transactions due to their contribution to a successful delivery.…”

This paper presents a comprehensive survey of the existing blockchain protocols for the Internet of Things (IoT) networks. We start by describing the blockchains and summarizing the existing surveys that deal with blockchain technologies. Then, we provide an overview of the application domains of blockchain technologies in IoT, e.g, Internet of Vehicles, Internet of Energy, Internet of Cloud, Fog computing, etc. Moreover, we provide a classification of threat models, which are considered by blockchain protocols in IoT networks, into five main categories, namely, identity-based attacks, manipulationbased attacks, cryptanalytic attacks, reputation-based attacks, and service-based attacks. In addition, we provide a taxonomy and a side-by-side comparison of the state-of-the-art methods towards secure and privacy-preserving blockchain technologies with respect to the blockchain model, specific security goals, performance, limitations, computation complexity, and communication overhead. Based on the current survey, we highlight open research challenges and discuss possible future research directions in the blockchain technologies for IoT.

“…P2P aggregation for providing ancillary services is based on the assumption that prosumers selforganize and cooperate to effectively complete the assigned task. However, concerns about own resources consumption can limit this cooperation and invalidate the aggregation process [45]. For this reason, in [45] the authors propose that a suitable remunerative incentive mechanism must be implemented for encouraging secure participation of prosumers in a dynamic and collaborative P2P aggregation environment.…”

Today, the blockchain is synonymous of technological innovation, being recognised among the 10 top strategy technologies in 2018 by the consulting company Gartner, it is more and more adopted in different sectors. However, the initial enthusiasm around this technology is going beyond the peak of inflated expectations, towards more stable applications in money transactions, cryptocurrencies and Digital Commodity Exchanges. Essentially, misguided efforts, the overuse of blockchain, and the Bitcoin's price drop have been the main reasons for this decay in expectations. Nevertheless, the exploitation of the blockchain technology in the power systems area appears largely underexplored, furthermore, the relation to the physical asset makes the blockchain application more complex but also more reliable and related to measurable benefits. The most common applications in the power systems area relate to the energy market. When the blockchain technology is indeed applied to the energy field, the term energy blockchain is used. This article aims to propose a wide perspective about the application of the blockchain technology in the power systems area, clarifying some technical aspects concerning this promising technology, the features and applications developed so far, while focusing on the future of innovative applications in the electrical energy sector.

“…Incentive layer: each blockchain system has its unique economic incentive and token allocation system to encourage the nodes in the blockchain network to jointly maintain the blockchain network [32].  Data layer: This layer mainly solves the problems of how data in the block is combined together, and encapsulates the underlying technologies including time stamps, hash functions, asymmetric encryption technology, and the chain structure of the data block [30], which lays a solid foundation for the superstructure of the blockchain network.…”

A Distributed Energy Trading Authentication Mechanism Based on a Consortium Blockchain

With the rapid development of the energy internet, the transaction of distributed renewable energy (DRE) is playing an increasingly important role in the energy market. However, in the transaction model of distributed renewable energy combined with public blockchain technology, nodes in the trading network can join or leave the network at any time without any permission, which hinders the regulation of electricity institutions. Corresponding to the transaction principle, a distributed renewable energy transaction authentication mechanism based on consortium blockchain is proposed in this paper. First, certificate authority nodes were set in the transaction network to provide nodes with access authority by controlling the public keys and private keys of trading participants so that they can complete their identity authentication. Next, essential chaincodes in the transaction authentication were designed and deployed on a Hyperledger Fabric blockchain site, and a simulation experiment of a simple DRE transaction was used to elaborate the details on the transaction process. Finally, the proposed model was evaluated according to its performance and proved to be practical and effective.
