A Blockchain-based carbon emission security accounting scheme

To solve the problem of climate warming, countries around the world have paid special attention to the construction of carbon governance. Carbon emission accounting is an important policy tool to control the vented CO2. But at present, there are third-party agencies in carbon emission accounting that cannot ensure the fairness and impartiality of accounting, and there may be risks such as illegal use and leakage of sensitive information in the process of carbon emission data transmission. Therefore, We design the blockchain-based carbon emission security accounting scheme (BCESAS) and propose cross-chain verification contract to ensure the efficiency of cross-chain information accounting. In addition, bilinear pairing is used to ensure data integrity, and we encrypt private data using an improved and more secure homomorphic encryption algorithm to ensure that privacy is not leaked during the transfer of carbon emission data, which is more efficent than other homomorphic encryption algorithms. We also use reputation mechanism to regulate the behavior of carbon emission auditors. The theoretical and experimental analysis demonstrates that BCESAS can verify the integrity, correctness and privacy of cross-chain data calculation result effectively, realizing secure and reliable expansion of blockchain.
