【Abstract】One of the pressing legal questions of the energy transition is how to integrate 1,rosumers, consumers who start producing electricity, in the electricity market. So far, their influence remains limited or fully absent because their role as independent market participants is barely or not facilitated as they are usually subject to regulated remuneration schemes. Blockchain technology offers changing the approach of integration in the market into becoming the market by enabling peer-to-peer transactions. Currently, transactions are facilitated by third parties, suppliers and system operators, whose main task is centrally compiling and coordinating information on loads and generation and contracting supply and distribution services. Instead, blockchain technology enables new ways of organising decentralised persons without the immediate need for one centrally connecting entity. This implies profound legal- and policy consequences. Based on information on first use cases of blockchain applications in the electricity sector, this article identifies those main policy implications for EU electricity law and thereby adds to the discussion how blockchain technology could facilitate `rosumers to develop as independent market participants in the electricity sector from an energy law perspective.

【标题】改变权力：用区块链技术改变电力消费者的角色——对欧盟电力法的政策影响
【摘要】能源转型的紧迫法律问题之一是如何将 1,rosumer，即开始发电的消费者整合到电力市场中。到目前为止，他们的影响力仍然有限或完全不存在，因为他们作为独立市场参与者的角色几乎没有或没有得到促进，因为他们通常受制于受监管的薪酬计划。区块链技术通过实现点对点交易，将市场整合方式转变为市场。目前，交易由第三方、供应商和系统运营商促进，他们的主要任务是集中编译和协调负荷和发电信息以及承包供应和分配服务。相反，区块链技术能够以新的方式组织去中心化的人，而无需立即建立一个集中连接的实体。这意味着深刻的法律和政策后果。根据有关电力行业区块链应用的第一个用例的信息，本文确定了对欧盟电力法的主要政策影响，从而增加了对区块链技术如何促进“消费者成为电力行业的独立市场参与者”的讨论。能量法的观点。
