Southern Power Grid's Patent Application for Blockchain-Based Power Data Security Control System Approved

On March 28, 2025, the State Intellectual Property Office of China announced that Southern Power Grid Scientific Research Institute Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Southern Power Grid Research Institute") successfully obtained a patent for a "Blockchain-Based Power Data Security Control System," with publication number CN119691451A and application date in December 2024. This patent marks a significant breakthrough for the Southern Power Grid Research Institute in the field of power system security, providing new technical guarantees for improving the safe operation of power systems.

The patent abstract details the core functions and technical characteristics of the system. The system primarily consists of a data acquisition module, a rule mining module, and a blockchain-based security control mechanism. The data acquisition module is responsible for acquiring real-time operational data from the power system, including but not limited to power generation, transmission line load, voltage, and current. This data is then transmitted to the rule mining module for processing and analysis.

The core function of the rule mining module is to mine frequent itemsets and generate association rules. By analyzing massive amounts of power operation data, this module can identify correlations between data and transform them into understandable association rules. These rules reflect the operating laws of the power system and provide a basis for identifying abnormal situations. For example, the module can identify specific data combinations that often indicate equipment malfunctions or system anomalies.

Based on the mined association rules, the system constructs a variable space. Within this space, the system can determine the optimal monitoring path based on preset objectives. By analyzing the association rules corresponding to the target path, the system can accurately identify potential risks and anomalies in the power system. This significantly enhances the detection capability of power system safety hazards.

Compared to traditional power data security control systems, the patent applied for by the Southern Power Grid Research Institute demonstrates significant advantages in security. It utilizes blockchain technology to achieve data immutability, traceability, and transparent management. This effectively prevents data tampering or leakage, ensuring the integrity and security of power system data. The application of blockchain technology also improves the reliability and stability of the system, reducing the risk of system failures.

The application of this patented technology will bring multiple positive impacts. Firstly, it will significantly improve the detection capability of power system safety hazards, reduce power outages caused by system failures or human factors, and improve the reliability and stability of power supply. Secondly, it will help optimize the operation efficiency of the power system and reduce operating costs. By timely identifying and resolving potential problems, larger economic losses and social impacts can be avoided.

Furthermore, the application of this technology will enhance the security of the power system and strengthen its defense against cyberattacks and data breaches. In the increasingly complex power system environment, data security is paramount. This patented technology provides strong technical support for ensuring the security of power system data.

Southern Power Grid Research Institute, a research institution with extensive technical expertise in the power sector, has long been committed to technological innovation and research and development in power systems. The successful patent application demonstrates its technical strength in this field and signifies new progress in China's power data security control technology.
