Abstract	As electricity is a high demand technology in any society and city, the technology of distribution and billing must evolve within a certain time.There are lots of limitations present in current techniques, like we can’t access live information of previous unit usage, users’ privacy is also not maintained here, and one more important thing is that there is no transparency in the payment system. To solve such types of problems, we present a blockchain-based model for usage in smart cities. This will not only maintain transparency but will also maintain the anonymity of users. This paper determines how we can implement blockchain technology in smart cities to facilitate the development of smart cities and delivers a smart city ecosystem based model which depends on smart metres using blockchain technology, which will also build a smart contract between citizens and administrations. This paper will show how the reading of electric metres can be stored in the blockchain and how we can protect the privacy of users using blockchain technology. At the end, citizens will make payments without revealing their privacy. At the end of this paper, we will also conclude how we can do energy management using the data stored in the blockchain. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
