Abstract

The subject invention relates to employing interactive components and execution components to facilitate power transactions. In an example, a method includes receiving a first set of data from a set of agent components, wherein the first set of data represents a purchase, a transmission, a production, a sale or a consumption of energy; and facilitating execution, by the system, of a set of contracts between a first subset of agent components and a second subset of agent components based on the first set of data. In another example, a method can further include insuring, by the system, the set of contracts against a supply surplus of energy or a production shortage of energy.
