Non-renewable energies have been increasingly destructive to the environment, and as a result, society has been seeking to replace these energies at a growing rate. Converting current non-renewable-based power grids to environmentally friendly smart energy grids has been identified as one of the most powerful ways to remove the reliance on non-renewable energies. However, failing to keep these new power grids efficient and secure will cause this concept to fail to become a reality. With a new energy management system, a new security system is also required. Some developing technologies such as blockchain and artificial intelligence have been identified as candidates for strong and efficient security protocols for smart grids. Analysis shows that blockchain technology can provide incredible defense against malicious tampering and data protection. Artificial intelligence can be trained to identify attacks before they become destructive. Along with these new technologies, concepts such as the firewall should be included due to their general effectiveness and efficiency. By utilizing both old and new security protocols, a safer, more efficient, and more reliable energy grid for the future can be created.
