Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Electricity Markets for Low Voltage Networks

We develop a clearance and settlement model for Peer-to-Peer (P2P) energy trading in low-voltage networks. The model enables direct transactions between parties within an open and distributed system and integrates unused capacity while respecting network constraints. We evaluate the model through simulations of different scenarios (normal operating conditions and extreme conditions) for 24-hour time blocks. Our simulations highlight the benefits of our model in a decentralized energy system, notably its ability to deal with high-trade volumes.
