主侧链技术及其能源互联网应用综述

Main⁃Side Chain Technology and Its Applications in Energy Internet

对主侧链技术的5种模式进行了综述,分析其中的优缺点,重点讨论主侧链技术的应用场景,并结合能源互联网领域发展的最新趋势和需求,认为能源互联网具有分布式、分散、多能源协调和金融市场化的特点,这些特征和区块链技术概念彼此一致,但很多现有研究是在简单或单一场景下对区块链应用的讨论,有必要对同一场景下、不同场景之间的各个区块链之间的交互进行讨论,以满足相应的信息交互需求.为了满足能源互联网中角色、内容和级别不同的数据和服务交互的不同需求,将侧链技术集成到能源互联网中至关重要.并以两种典型的应用场景为例,给出了侧链技术在能源领域的具体应用架构.

A review is conducted on the five modes of main⁃side chain technology including the detailed discussion on its application scenarios as well as their advantages and disadvantages.Considering the up⁃to⁃date trend and demands in the development,it is believed that the energy Internet is characterized by the distribution,the decentralization,the multi⁃energy coordination and the financial marketization which are consistent with the concepts of blockchain.Although existing studies in applications mainly focus on simple or single scenarios,it is necessary to discuss the interaction between various blockchains inside one scenario and between various scenarios to meet the information exchange needs.It is crucial to integrate side chain technology into the energy internet in order to satisfy the different data and service interactions among different roles,content,and layers in the energy internet.Two typical application scenarios is given as examples to demonstrate the specific application architecture of side⁃chain technology in the energy field.
