A peer-to-peer blockchain based interconnected power system

Utilities produce and supply products following local requirements and with the synchronizations which connect subscribers. Harmonics is a power efficiency/quality variable caused by electronic devices that domestic and industrial consumers use. The famous IEEE Standard 519 is maintained to calculate harmonic limits, which ensures power efficiency. In a standard power system, currents and voltages generate pure sine wave signals during regular operations. As harmonics influence the power system, they cause interference in the sine wave signals. So, the best practice method should be used to resolve the harmonics issue. One of the problem-solving techniques of harmonics is the measurement and reduction of harmonics detection, and it uses Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Therefore, power output should assess in a peer-to-peer Blockchain scheme by measuring and minimizing harmonics detection. This paper uses a Shunt Active Power Filter (SHAPF). It describes the simulation analysis and reduction of harmonics detection in a peer-to-peer interconnected 3-phase power system with the help of an FFT algorithm. This research was carried out to assess the efficiency of the AC signal by collecting, processing, and evaluating power data. Using the shunt active filter, the proposed design outperformed the traditional methods for both six and twelve pulse rectifiers, achieving total harmonic distortion (THD) of only 1.42% and 0.92%, respectively.
