Power grids are undergoing major changes due to rapid growth in renewable energy and improvements in battery technology. Prompted by the increasing complexity of power systems, decentralized IoT solutions are emerging, which arrange local communities into transactive microgrids. The core functionality of these solutions is to provide mechanisms for matching producers with consumers while ensuring system safety. However, there are multiple challenges that these solutions still face: privacy, trust, and resilience. The privacy challenge arises because the time series of production and consumption data for each participant is sensitive and may be used to infer personal information. Trust is an issue because a producer or consumer can renege on the promised energy transfer. Providing
resilience is challenging due to the possibility of failures in the infrastructure that is required to support these market based
solutions. In this paper, we develop a rigorous solution for transactive microgrids that addresses all three challenges by
providing an innovative combination of MILP solvers, smart contracts, and publish-subscribe middleware within a framework
of a novel distributed application platform, called Resilient Information Architecture Platform for Smart Grid. Towards this
purpose, we describe the key architectural concepts, including fault tolerance, and show the trade-off between market efficiency
and resource requirements.
