Local energy trading has garnered attention due to its environmental benefits and innovative role in energy management, offering advantages such as the reduction of carbon emissions, ensuring energy supply security, and increasing market competitiveness. However, energy trading among multiple prosumers, particularly in centralized systems, brings about security, privacy, and reliability issues that may lead to single-point failures and high costs. To address these challenges, this study proposes a blockchain-based, dual-layer secure P2P energy trading model. The model enhances security against fraudulent attacks through an authentication layer, while the secure trading layer incorporates an innovative consensus mechanism that minimizes the impact of malicious validators. Additionally, a rewarding mechanism is introduced to encourage prosumer participation. The model aims to raise security, privacy, and reliability standards in energy trading, demonstrating successful performance in terms of trust and data protection.
