Title
Blockchain Mobility Solution for Charging Transactions of Electrical Vehicles
Abstract
Many countries in Europe are adopting a deregulated system where prosumers can subscribe with any energy supplier in an open market, independently of location. However, the mobility aspect of transactions in the existing system is not satisfactorily covered. For instance, if a person receives the service of charging an EV from a prosumer's local outlet, he cannot pay to the prosumer directly without the presence of an intermediary system. This has led to a situation where the EV owners need to have a large number of subscriptions for EV charging providers and visitors cannot pay for the electricity used there. This study evaluates this mobility gap and proposes a solution for charging transactions using blockchain technology. Furthermore, we implement a proof of concept using the Hyperledger consortium platform for the technical feasibility of the proposed approach and evaluate the performance metrics such as transaction latency and throughput.
