Frontend-focused SIH prototype for peer-to-peer rooftop solar energy trading using AI and blockchain concepts.
Energy-Nexus is a Smart India Hackathon (SIH) project designed to create a decentralized platform where households and prosumers can trade excess rooftop solar electrical energy directly with nearby consumers.
The project focuses on building a transparent, intelligent, and user-friendly energy marketplace that encourages clean energy adoption and efficient utilization of renewable resources.
Traditional electricity systems do not provide an efficient mechanism for small-scale solar producers to sell excess electricity directly to consumers.
As rooftop solar adoption increases, there is a growing need for:
- decentralized energy trading
- transparent pricing
- real-time energy monitoring
- intelligent energy management systems
Energy-Nexus aims to address these challenges through a digital peer-to-peer energy trading platform.
Energy-Nexus proposes a future where:
- Prosumers can sell surplus solar energy
- Consumers can purchase clean energy locally
- AI helps optimize pricing and forecasting
- Blockchain concepts improve transaction transparency
- Renewable energy trading becomes accessible and efficient
- Secure login/signup system
- Role-based access (Consumer / Prosumer)
- Buy and sell excess rooftop solar energy
- Transparent energy trading workflow
- Real-time marketplace interface
- Energy consumption insights
- Trading statistics and analytics
- Earnings and savings visualization
- AI-based future scope for price prediction
- Weather forecasting integration
- Smart recommendation system
- Responsive dashboard design
- Interactive components
- Mobile-friendly interface
- Clean user experience
- React
- TypeScript
- Vite
- Tailwind CSS
- Framer Motion
- Node.js
- Express.js
- MongoDB
- Blockchain verification
- AI-based forecasting
- Real-time trading engine
