Wholesale Electricity Market Settlement Engine

We build high-assurance, automated settlement engines that replace legacy systems for transparent, immediate, and final transaction clearing in wholesale electricity markets.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by expert Solidity engineers.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the backbone of your Web3 application. Our development process ensures security-first design, gas optimization, and comprehensive audit readiness from day one.

  • Protocol Development: Custom ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and bespoke token standards.
  • DeFi & DEX: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), liquidity pools, staking, and yield farming contracts.
  • NFTs & Marketplaces: Minting logic, royalty enforcement, and auction mechanisms.
  • Utility & Governance: Multi-signature wallets, DAO frameworks, and access control systems.

We deliver battle-tested contracts with a focus on reducing vulnerabilities and minimizing gas costs for end-users.

Our engineers write in Solidity 0.8+, adhere to OpenZeppelin standards, and implement formal verification where required. We provide a clear roadmap from initial spec to mainnet deployment in as little as 2-4 weeks.

PROVEN FRAMEWORK

Our Delivery Methodology

We deliver secure, auditable, and production-ready settlement engines using a structured, milestone-driven approach that de-risks development and ensures regulatory compliance.

01

Architecture & Design Sprint

We begin with a collaborative 2-week sprint to define the core settlement logic, data models, and smart contract architecture, ensuring alignment with your market rules and regulatory requirements from day one.

2 weeks
Initial Design

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers on our development process, security, and support for your custom settlement solution.

A standard Wholesale Electricity Market Settlement Engine with core settlement, billing, and reporting modules takes 8-12 weeks from kickoff to production deployment. This includes requirements analysis, smart contract development, integration with market data oracles, and security audits. Complex features like real-time imbalance pricing or multi-region compliance can extend the timeline, which we scope and estimate during the discovery phase.
