Proposing and Developing Low-power Quantum Arithmetic Logic Units (QALUs) for Smart Grids and the Internet of Energy

The advancement of modern power systems has produced smart grids by implementing intelligent control systems linked with digital communication technology to boost reliability and sustainability while improving operational efficiency. The Internet of Energy (IoE) represents an advanced version of smart grids that adopt real-time monitoring with decentralized energy management and dynamic power distribution to maximize energy efficiency. The development of the IoE encounters major obstacles because it handles problems involving power consumption, alongside calculation speed, network stability, the protection of information resources, and problems related to system performance management. The solution to these difficulties demands innovative technological methods for implementation. The authors present Quantum Arithmetic Logic Units (QALUs), which serve as a groundbreaking technology for optimizing performance and energy usage in smart grids, together with IoE systems. The combination of nanotechnology elements with quantum computing rules enables QALUs to operate with minimal power requirements alongside simultaneous processing features and error-resilient operations, which suits them for immediate energy supervision purposes. The QALU design proposal demonstrates the evaluation of power efficiency performance while showing operational accuracy levels and scalability capabilities for a future energy network revolution. The proposed ALU brings improvements in all areas, including power consumption, with a 99.29results. This paper marks a transformative advancement in the development of quantum-enhanced smart grids, which pave the way for enhanced, sustainable, and secure optimized energy systems.
