Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Blockchain Technology in Water Management and New Energy Economy explores the transformative role of blockchain in addressing two of the most pressing global challenges: efficient water resource management and the transition to a sustainable energy future. As climate change, population growth, and urbanization exert increasing pressure on natural resources, traditional systems for managing water and energy are proving inadequate. This book presents blockchain as a powerful enabler of transparency, decentralization, and trust in resource governance, offering innovative solutions that can reshape these critical sectors. The book is divided into two major sections. The first focuses on water management, covering how blockchain can enhance monitoring, prevent water theft, support real-time quality assessments, and enable equitable distribution through smart contracts. It examines case studies where decentralized ledger technology has improved water conservation, optimized irrigation systems in agriculture, and facilitated peer-to-peer water trading.The second section delves into the new energy economy, highlighting blockchain's potential in supporting renewable energy integration, smart grids, decentralized energy markets, and carbon credit tracking. It discusses how blockchain can empower consumers to become 'prosumers' - both producing and consuming energy - while maintaining secure and traceable transactions. Additionally, the book explores cross-cutting themes such as data privacy, regulatory challenges, scalability, and the socio-economic impact of blockchain adoption. Through real-world examples, technical insights, and forward-looking perspectives, this book provides a comprehensive guide for researchers, policy makers, engineers, and sustainability advocates seeking to understand and apply blockchain technology for a greener and more resource-efficient future.…
