Blockchain for peer-to-peer energy trading is not suitable in Switzerland and the USA due to regulations so instead we trade energy credits not currency or kWhs which need a digital tracking, tracing and trading blockchain database from origin to final use to prove provenance ensuring authenticity.
This approach tracks traces and trades clean energy credits from clean energy hydro, wind, biomass, geothermal and solar for business-to-business generation to disposition where the renewable energy credit market RECs are very important for corporations to achieve their sustainability / green goals with fast, immutable digital audits.
