Abstract

The supremacy and fast development of quantum techniques are stimulating the arrival of an ultra-secure and super-fast quantum internet, which accordingly will shape future electric grids. This paper develops a novel scheme for resilient electric grids by using a quantum direct communication (QDC) network. The novelty of this work includes: (a) a novel QDC-based electric grid architecture is devised to provide ultra-secure communication; (b) we investigate QDC protocols for grid communication and analyze the impacts of attacks and noises; and (c) we demonstrate how to establish a QDC-enabled electric grid testbed to evaluate the system's performance.
