Abstract
Traditionally, distribution network automation systems have a centralized architecture in which data from various field devices, such as measuring devices and remote termination devices, are centrally managed by a dispatch and data collection system. Unlike traditional methods, blockchain technology facilitates the transfer of digital assets between peer-to-peer nodes without any intermediaries. This article presents a decentralized system model built on the Cisco Packet Tracer program and a table with the time taken to exchange data between the virtual power plant, which can be used to calculate a profitable purchase or sale of energy.
