With the continuous emergence of massive distributed resources, blockchain technology provides a new solution to the trust problem in the energy field. However, some existing researches only use the blockchain to record data and currency transactions, resulting in limited blockchain application scenarios. This paper analyzes the blockchain consensus mechanism in detail, and designs a hybrid consensus mechanism that integrates multiple algorithms. On this basis, a hybrid consensus mechanism based on convex optimization problem is proposed, which deeply integrates the consensus mechanism with the scheduling problem. Experiments show that this consensus mechanism has better performance than a single type of consensus mechanism, and can fully utilize computing resources.
