Abstract

There are many power system grid carrying energy from power plants to consumer. In order to manage these huge grid are all monitored by WSN and controlled by a large cluster of computers. However, the problem is how to ensure that all the data transmitted by the grid is authentic and has not been modified in any way. This paper presents a model for increasing communication security in the power system grid. For this purpose, blockchain is used to store all communication data, blockchain is distributed, secure and reliable. The main goal is that information is protected in the blockchain against modification attempts. In addition, power source can be authenticated and tracked from the consumer to the source.
