Asymmetric encryption allows each blockchain participant to get control over full node that publish new blocks, authorize the blocks and update the ledger. The significant factors that compel the blockchain technology to be utilized in energy sector is the mismatch between the energy supply and demand at territorial levels, transparency in energy transactions, security of solar assets, creating a direct relation between energy supplier and consumer and most imperative the wide-spread of green energy. SolarCoin develops a way for peer to peer energy transactions and secure storage of solar energy data into its public blockchain.
