United States of America – “Quantum sensors can modernize the U.S. electrical grid through on-site technology with the long-term aim of supporting climate resilience”, a recent article by Staff Correspondent Alexandra Kelley from NextGov.com states variable opportunities in infrastructure within the energy sector. Regards and opinions on optimizations and energy distribution remain controversial as energy sources reach more social property. She has reported on multiple issues including quantitative subjects, Big Tech and has recently published an article for the Hill.
With the topics becoming more viable and with an onslaught of government intervention and leadership in establishing such infrastructure takes interests further into who’s energy is it and who should also monetize or control it depending on the source, let alone create an independent grid free of manipulations and or control by a single entity or single source of failure.
With the recent years of energy national security issues, we have faced, we should expect new and emerging sweeping protocols and specifications that have not been seen before.
With emerging markets and adversaries trying to counteractive renewable grids and or gain monetarily through moving energy sources and race to control energy guidlines or lack there of we are facing new and challenging obstacles and obstructions. Private energy derived from homes or renewable investments of private entities through new or other methods have faced new threats and energy manipulations or in sence racketeering methods trying to control through cryptographic energy transfer or thefts, grid problems and other environmental issues.
All in all, it is a all hands-on deck issue to combat climate manipulations and with emerging markets, air waves and new forms of transfer and conveyance of data/electricity we will face new obstacles and new needed workforces.

Let’s dive into Alezandra Kelley’s brief On NextGov
She stated that quantum sensors, which are now employed in Magnetic Resonance Imaging machines and atomic clocks, can provide more precise data on which essential infrastructure relies.
Rima Oueid, a senior commercialization executive in the Office of Technology Transitions at the Department of Energy, spoke with Nextgov about the agency’s larger goals for implementing quantum information science and technology, or QIST, in existing infrastructure, emphasizing the numerous benefits of quantum sensor application.
Critical infrastructure, such as the US electrical system, relies on global positioning technology to communicate location, navigation, and timing data in order to function. According to Oueid, quantum sensors have the capability of reporting PNT data directly from the electrical grid rather than satellite-based GPS sources.
“What we’re realizing now is that there are different types of quantum sensors that we can also now use for timing that could be deployed directly on the grid…as opposed to depending on GPS,” Oueid said. “We’re hoping that we get to a place where we don’t need the satellite communication, that we would have these quantum sensors distributed.”

In addition to optimizing the nation’s electrical grid for better use of renewable energy, quantum sensors are being researched for their potential to track climate change with more precise algorithms, as well as conducting subsurface level exploration to find potential underground carbon repositories in an effort to reduce fracking activity.
The ultimate objective is to completely integrate dispersed energy resources, such as wind, solar, and electric cars, into the country’s central electrical grid to serve as energy assets. Although Oueid admits that some market factors will need to coincide with Energy’s efforts to drive widespread electric car adoption and integration, quantum sensors can employ PNT data to help communicate to vehicles when renewables are easily accessible on the grid to charge their batteries.
“The possibilities are amazing,” Oueid said. “There’s a lot of different use cases that could help us make a system smarter and more efficient to help reduce climate change concerns.”
