Behind High Energy Consumption of Blockchain: PoS Consensus Mechanism To Be A Solution

Published

on

The energy consumption of Blockchain

Recently, Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla, posted on Twitter saying that: Bitcoin can consume too much in mining and transaction process, such excessive fossil fuel consumption will result in negative impacts on the ecosystem. The Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin also noticed the high power consumption problem in Blockchain technology. He presented that Ethereum would change its consensus mechanism from PoW to PoS to reduce the power consumption caused by the mining process in PoW-based technologies like the Bitcoin. From a global view, energy consumption issues are concerned by an increasing number of countries. To urge the efficient power usage, many countries and organizations have set up environmental protection plans, such as the UN’s SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) and the US carbon neutrality, etc.

In this context, the future development of a technology need to consider the sustainable development and environmental friendliness as one of the important metrics and goals. As an emerging technology for privacy protection, Blockchain presents excellent protection capabilities. However, such capabilities rely on the large-scale computing resources and result in a large amount of power consumption. Part of the reasons for such high power consumption are due to the PoW (Proof of Work) consensus mechanism which has high demands on the performance of the Blockchain nodes.

Besides energy consumption, other concerns of the consensus mechanism

The technology of the base layer of the Blockchain has the advantages like anonymous, Immutable, decentralized and so on. To achieve these advantages, Blockchain enhances the privacy and protect the transaction process by increasing the cost of network participation. The core concept of the early-stage PoW consensus mechanism is based on the workload cost.  The credibility need to be proved by the cost of a lot of work. In this case, the machines that maintain the ledgers (also referred to as mining nodes) need to continually crack complex math puzzles to obtain Bitcoin as rewards. This computing process not only needs to rely on a large amount of computing resources, but also sacrifices part of the scalability on the Blockchain to ensure safety. When it comes to the boosting growing of transaction volume, this mechanism will not be able to meet high-speed and large-scale processing demands. Based on such limitations of PoW, PoS (Proof of stake) is gaining more and more attention to work as a consensus mechanism with low resource consumption and guaranteed decentralization, safety and scalability.

In a PoS-based Blockchain system, nodes do not have to consume much power to compete for accounting rights. The priority of accounting rights is measured by the amount of stake holdings. In this way, the nodes no longer consume a large amount of electricity to calculate the hash functions, thereby solving the high energy consumption issues in PoW mechanism. In spite of the improved efficiency in PoS, the safety of the mechanism is affected. Therefore, in order to ensure the reliable operation of PoS, the researchers need to develop reliable algorithms from the trade-off among the decentralization, safety and scalability.

Unique advantages of PlatON PoS

With the issues caused by the PoW mechanism has been widely criticized, more and more Blockchain technologies inclined to choose or transit to the PoS-based consensus mechanisms. This results in a boosting growing of the PoS-based Blockchain frameworks in recent years. As the world leader in computing privacy area, PlatON has rooted and researched in privacy computing technologies many years. PlatON’s research and practice in consensus mechanisms are also forward-looking. The PPoS (PlatON PoS) consensus mechanism uses off-chain identity, credit mechanisms and procedural arrangements to provide a scheme to select a number of verification nodes from many participating nodes as fair and randomly as possible. Hence, PPoS can effectively inhibit bribery, collusion, etc., and reduce the consensus cost and improve the system scalability by optimizing technical details. Meanwhile, ensuring the decentralization and scalability, PlatON further enhances the system safety by combining the experiences in computing privacy area. The Alaya network based on PlatON PoS has been operating stably and efficiently for a long time, successfully solving the problem of over-centralization of the system, reducing network communication complexity and message complexity, improving consensus efficiency and the entire Blockchain transaction processing performance. In this case, the safety and liveness of the technology are verified. PlatON has been able to improve its PoS mechanism through its attention to every detail, continuous attempts, active exploration of cutting-edge areas, and forward-looking plans in the future development. Next step, PlatON will continue actively promoting the efficient network operation with high-quality code, providing efficient, high-availability, distributed and sustainable infrastructure applicable for diverse industrial and commercial use cases, and supporting the exchange of data flows in the global world.

Thailand, 26th Sep 2026 – DTC Group, a Web3 growth partner operating across Asia Pacific, will take part in AI Expo Thailand 2026 as a partner, with Cofounder and Chief Executive Officer Barami Rai joining the event’s conference programme. The four day exhibition runs from October 1 to 4 at IMPACT Challenger in Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi.

AI Expo Thailand 2026 brings together more than 300 booths across a 17,136 square metre floor, alongside a startup village housing 50 AI startups and a conference programme of keynote talks, panel discussions and workshop sessions. The show floor is organised into named areas including a Generative AI Zone, AI for Industry, a Live Demo Arena and an AI Networking Lounge, and an AI Awards Thailand programme will recognise companies working in the field. An AI Career Fair running alongside the exhibition brings more than 50 companies recruiting on site, and a dedicated B2B area is set aside for business matching between exhibitors, corporate buyers and investors. The exhibition follows the Road to AI Expo meetup series, which ran six free sessions in Bangkok in the months leading up to the show, bringing together developers, founders and companies working on AI ahead of the main event.

AI Expo Thailand 2026 covers enterprise AI, generative AI and robotics, with exhibitors showing tools, platforms and hardware across the four days. The exhibition is co located with Thailand Mobile Expo, a long running Thai consumer technology show, which brings a general consumer audience through the same venue alongside trade visitors.

The company will use the event to meet founders, operators and investors working on regional go to market plans, and to speak with teams evaluating Thailand and the wider region as a launch market. Barami Rai will join the conference programme alongside speakers drawn from Thailand’s technology industry.

The exhibition occupies Hall 2 at IMPACT Challenger, with a floor measuring 153 by 112 metres. General admission is free and covers the exhibition booths and the outdoor activity area, with advance registration available for faster entry. Access to the conference sessions and workshop rooms requires a paid pass, with current tiers listed on the event website. The exhibition is open 10:00 to 19:00 daily from October 1 to 4 at IMPACT Challenger, Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi, with free parking for more than 10,000 vehicles.

Exhibitor and sponsor packages for AI Expo Thailand 2026 remain open, ranging from full sponsor stands on the main exhibition floor to smaller booths in the Startup Village.

The conference programme runs across all four days, with sessions on the Main Stage and in the workshop rooms. The AI Networking Lounge is set aside for executives, developers and investors attending the show, and the Live Demo Arena gives visitors access to working systems on the floor rather than slides alone.

More than 60 speakers will take part across the four days, with further names still to be announced ahead of the show. Sessions run alongside the exhibition floor rather than in a separate venue, so visitors can move between talks and stands during the same visit.

The event is aimed at business teams evaluating AI tools, developers and engineers, startups seeking investment or customers, and jobseekers using the AI Career Fair, which runs on all four days of the exhibition. Day passes are available for visitors attending a single day, and four day passes cover the full run of the exhibition and the conference programme.
