How Edge Computing Powers Real-Time Energy Trading on Local Microgrids
In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how edge computing is enabling peer-to-peer energy trading on local microgrids. They focus on the case of Brooklyn Microgrid, a pilot project where homes and businesses with solar panels trade excess energy in real time using edge nodes that settle transactions in seconds.
