Secure information flows with at digital platform for biofuels
The project aims to investigate safety aspects and whether blockchains can be used to meet users' demands for safety, traceability and integrity in digitized trade in biofuels in Sweden.
The project aims to investigate safety aspects and if blockchains can be used to meet users demands for
security, traceability and integrity.
The goal is to be able to introduce a digital platform for trading in solid biofuels with a clear roadmap for how safety
aspects should be handled. The project thus meets three of the call's challenges; the importance of data platforms
for achieving a sustainable energy system, cyber security and integrity and digital transformation of energy
markets.
In order for Sweden to be able to transform the energy system, and reach the target of zero net emissions by
2045, a significant increase in the use of biofuels is necessary. A digitalisation of the biofuel market can contribute
to an increased rate of change partly by facilitating new and small players in the market, and partly by facilitating
the introduction of new biobased products. In order for digital trading to be successful, security aspects must be.
