Abstract  The digitization, informatization, and intelligentization of physical systems require strong support from big data analysis. However, due to restrictions on data security and privacy and concerns about the cost of big data collection, transmission, and storage, it is difficult to do data aggregation in real-world power systems, which directly retards the effective implementation of smart grid analytics. Federated learning, an advanced distributed learning method proposed by Google, seems a promising solution to the above issues. Nevertheless, it relies on a server node to complete model aggregation and the framework is limited to scenarios where data are independent and identically distributed. Thus, we here propose a serverless distributed learning platform based on blockchain to solve the above two issues. In the proposed platform, the task of machine learning is performed according to smart contracts, and encrypted models are aggregated via a mechanism of knowledge distillation. Through this proposed method, a server node is no longer required and the learning ability is no longer limited to independent and identically distributed scenarios. Experiments on a public electrical grid dataset will verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
