Abstract
This chapter investigates the application of blockchain technology in enhancing energy management within seaport infrastructure, focusing on a microgrid case study at the Port of Milford Haven in Wales. The chapter contextualizes the growing energy demands of seaports, driven by refrigeration, air conditioning, and other energy-intensive activities, which collectively contribute significantly to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The authors examine blockchain's role in decentralizing energy management, particularly using Ethereum-based smart contracts.
