Interreg: Blockchain­4­Prosumers - BC4P

The project name Blockchain4Prosumers - BC4P connects two elements: On the one hand the blockchain technology and on the other hand the prosumer. The blockchain makes it possible to make locally generated energy available through trading platforms or directly to other consumers and users. One of the, probably, most media-effective potential applications of blockchain in the energy industry is the so-called Peer-2-Peer trade.
