⚡ Decentralized Energy Market (DEM)

🚀 Overview

The Decentralized Energy Market (DEM) leverages smart contracts, federated learning, and edge computing to enable secure, peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading. This system provides a transparent, scalable, and efficient marketplace for renewable energy integration, empowering prosumers, industries, and microgrid operators.

🎯 Key Features

• 🔄 Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) – Optimizes energy trading dynamically.
• 📊 Federated Learning – Privacy-preserving demand forecasting without data sharing.
• 🔋 Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) Integration – Allows EVs to sell excess power to the grid.
• 🌱 AI-powered Carbon Tracking – Tracks energy consumption and rewards green behavior.

🏗️ Tech Stack

Software

• Frontend: Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Zustand
• Backend: Node.js, FastAPI
• Database: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, IPFS
• AI/ML: TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, Apache Kafka
• Blockchain: Hyperledger Fabric, Solidity, Web3.js

Hardware

FOR RUNNING BLOCKAIN USE npx hardhat node AND THEN DO SEPERATE TERMINAL WORK

IN SEDCOND TERMIANL DO npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network localhost

npx hardhat run scripts/interact.js --network localhost // for running script file
