<strong>Blockchain</strong> in energy industry Research Report- Forecast to 2023<br />

1 Summary<br />

<strong>Blockchain</strong> in energy industry consists of five main components, the first being the technology type and<br />

second being the implementation type of technology. Global energy and power players can choose to<br />

implement the technology as service and solution providers, as a testing out phase as development<br />

platforms, can implement them as industry-specific solutions. For instance, a utility provider can choose<br />

their solar generation and distribution services alone to be powered by blockchain technologies to expand<br />

their operational flexibility and engage more customers. To do this, the next component, i.e., which is the<br />

platform type is extremely important.<br />

Key Players:<br />

The key players of global blockchain in energy <strong>In</strong>dustry market are Power Ledger (Australia), Conjoule<br />

(Germany), Grid+ (U.S), Grid Singularity (Germany), Impact PPA (U.S), Exergy (LO3 energy) (U.S), The<br />

Sun Exchange (Pty) Ltd (South Africa), WePower UAB (Republic of Lithuania), and BTL Group<br />

Ltd.(Canada). Global blockchain (Canada), Electron (Chaddenwych Services Limited) (U.K), PONTON<br />

GmbH (Germany), Stedin Group (Netherlands), OURSOLARGRID (ITP <strong>In</strong>novative Technology Projects<br />

GmbH) (Germany), and Omega Grid (U.S) are among others.<br />

2 Market Overview<br />

Global <strong>Blockchain</strong> in <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>In</strong>dustry market has been segmented based on technology type, platform<br />

type, Implementation type, by end-use industries, by application and by region. With increasing number of<br />

decentralized energy generation services such as solar PV’s and small-scale wind energy, blockchain<br />

technology facilitates the trading of energy through the platform. Especially, peer-to-peer trading in<br />

applications is expected to dominate the industry as several startups and utilities are currently investing in<br />

this space. This is followed by the smart contracts generation application which are expected to be<br />

instantaneous using blockchain technology. The global utilities, blockchain companies and small-time<br />

power providers are increasingly looking to exploit these explicit benefits blockchain provides in this<br />

particular segment. For instance, energy producers through renewable energy sources can sell excess<br />

energy within their community to the peers of their choice through blockchain. Hence peer-2-peer energy<br />

trading is expected to witness the highest growth rate. While, the utilities by end-use sector is expected to<br />

dominate for the same reason as several million worth investment has been made by partnerships between<br />

utilities and <strong>Blockchain</strong> counterparts.<br />

3 Market Research Analysis<br />

Grid management and peer-to-peer energy trading services are expected to command a major market<br />

share<br />

The global blockchain in energy industry is segmented based on technology type, platform type,<br />

implementation type, end-use industries, and by applications across the different regions of the world.<br />

With the ability to monitor and facilitate decentralized applications, blockchain implementation in<br />

energy industry is expected to create new business models, such as peer-to-peer energy trading<br />

facilities. With this, customers can choose whom they want to share the energy generated by them<br />

and it can be done without any third party or consortiums intervention. This is highly beneficial,<br />

especially in regions and places where there is more distributed energy sources such as solar power<br />

generation and small-scale wind.<br />
