Abstract

Blockchain technology has triggered a new round of technological innovation and industrial change. Promoting the deep integration of blockchain technology and smart water conservancy has become an essential part of the digital transformation of the Chinese smart water conservancy industry. On the basis of the analysis of the framework of the smart water conservancy system and the technology infrastructure model of the blockchain, a conceptual model of a smart water conservancy information sharing platform is established. The platform has four-in-one and multicentralized participants including government departments, water conservancy enterprises, the public, and third-party maintenance, and the design of “alliance chain + private chain” dual chain smart contract. Moreover, the multidimensional scenarios of smart water conservancy innovation applications incorporating blockchain platform technology are addressed. Then, the water rights trading market is taken as an example to propose an innovative development path with consensus mechanisms, smart contracts, asymmetric encryption, and information source tracing. Although there may be some questions and challenges related to smart water conservancy and blockchain technology, this paper can provide a reference for the sustainable development of the smart water conservancy industry due to its fundamental societal contributions.

Highlights

  • With the advent of the Internet era and the digital society, a new generation of information technology represented by big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence has gradually matured and penetrated into all aspects of human life

  • There are application development platforms, such as Ethereum and Asch, based on smart contracts, but they are limited to the financial field; Blockchain 3.0 is the core of the Internet value

  • The conceptual model of the smart water conservancy information sharing platform (Figure 3) is a technical architecture based on four-in-one and multicentralized participants and a dual-chain smart contract platform design based on blockchain technology

Summary

Introduction

With the advent of the Internet era and the digital society, a new generation of information technology represented by big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence has gradually matured and penetrated into all aspects of human life. The application of blockchain technology in various fields of society has attracted renewed attention. As the underlying technology and infrastructure of Bitcoin, its outstanding advantages such as decentralization, openness, transparency, and nontampering have led to new business development models and broken the barriers and restrictions of traditional industries. The developing prospects of blockchain technology cannot be underestimated. Smart water conservancy construction based on modern science and technology is the only way to transform traditional water conservancy and modernize water conservancy. Blockchain + smart water conservancy is becoming a potential force to promote the high-quality development of water conservancy construction and water conservancy project management
