Microgrids represent a shift towards decentralised energy systems, improving energy resilience and sustainability through localised generation and distribution of power. By integrating blockchain technology, Blockchain-based Microgrids (BBMs) employ a secure, transparent ledger system to streamline peer-to-peer energy exchanges within these networks. Although numerous BBMs are under development, a common limitation is their lack of support for multiple public blockchain platforms. This study introduces an advanced BBM framework that accommodates various blockchain technologies, thereby facilitating real-time energy trading across different blockchain ecosystems, along with their associated cryptocurrencies.
