Introduction
Blockchain is a decentralized general ledger. It is a computer network that has an identical copy of the database and changes its status (records) to a common agreement based on pure mathematics. All this means that there is no need for any central server or any entity we trust (e.g. central bank, notaries, banks, paypal, etc.). The blockchain is the technological basis for all cryptocurrencies, whether Bitcoin, Ethereum, Hyperledger, etc.
An important part of the blockchain is the smart contracts, a piece of code that is stored in the blockchain network (in each participant's database). It basically defines the conditions to which all parties using the contract agree. Therefore, if the required conditions are met, certain actions are executed. Because the smart contract is stored on all computers on the network, everyone must run it and get the same result. This way users can be sure that the result is correct.
Blockchain and Smart Contracts open many doors to new decentralized businesses and eliminates the need for expensive third parties. Many new companies are now working on this technology, and large companies are testing it in closed networks to collaborate directly with each other without the need for intermediaries. For that reason, there is a lot of projects that are starting to use this new technology. However, not all of them are worth it. We have to read well what each project is dedicated to, what is its whitepaper, its qualified advisors, etc. As I said, blockchain technology has gained popularity due to the hype about cryptocurrencies which has shaken many startups to launch their own cryptocurrencies even without convincing fundamentals. This trend has emerged because new entrants have been more agile in adopting emerging technologies compared to incumbents who are hampered by legacy systems. However, this competitiveness and this advantage enjoyed by the new players may be short-lived, as no economies of scale are taken into account.
For this reason, I want to introduce you Energy Premier (EPC), an innovative electricity tender system that benefits both suppliers and consumers of electricity.
Definition
As I said, Energy Premier Token (https://tokensale.energypremier.com) is a retail electricity supply platform based on the blockchain and the cloud technologies. Using blockchain technology and smart contracts, Energy Premier focuses on developing a place where electricity offers will take only 30 minutes of their time, and you will not have to spend much time working on electricity.
Moreover, the usage of this technology allows Energy Premier to help to the suppliers and consumers to automatically conclude contracts in easy and safe way and these contracts cannot be changed by another user, and brings flexibility and transparency making the platform trustworthy and reliable.
Goals
The main goal of Energy Premier is to provide energy suppliers with direct and fair access to the energy retail market through the use of the blockchain, while offering better prices to consumers.
