A blockchain consensus mechanism for real-time regulation of renewable energy power systems.

ABSTRACT: With the ongoing development of renewable energy sources, information technologies and physical energy systems are further integrated, which leads to challenges in ensuring the secure and stable operation of renewable energy power systems in the face of potential cyber threats. The strengths of blockchain in cybersecurity make it a promising solution to these challenges. However, existing blockchains are not well-suited for control tasks due to their low real-time performance. Here, we present a consensus mechanism that enables real-time security control of systems, called Proof of Task. Instead of solving meaningless hash puzzles in Proof of Work, Proof of Task addresses problems closely related to the stable operation and control performance of these systems. With the proposed verificati
