The Grid Resilience Innovation and Development Act directs the Department of Energy to conduct research on how quantum information science and quantum computing can strengthen the reliability, security, and efficiency of the nation's electric grid. The research program will focus on specific areas including detecting and predicting power grid faults, improving grid security through advanced cryptography, optimizing energy storage and market operations, and enhancing grid modeling and planning. The Secretary of Energy is authorized to partner with private industry, national laboratories, universities, and other research institutions to carry out these research and development activities. While the bill does not specify dedicated funding amounts or explicit timelines, it establishes a mandate for the Department of Energy to pursue quantum technology applications that could make America's power infrastructure more resilient to outages and cyberattacks. This legislation amends the existing National Quantum Initiative Act to add electric grid resilience as a priority research area within the broader quantum information science research program.
