Introduction
Electrical energy storage is a key of modern and future life. The consumption of electrical energy (i.e. the use of air conditioning, audio and video devices or electric heating) is increasing every year due; firstly, to the increase of the population and secondly by the appearance of new form of consumption, such as electric cars. The dilemma with this increase consumption is, how to ensure the balance between supply and demand for electricity at all times? To address this problem, the idea of placing the new generation of Internet of Energy to control this energy has appeared in recent literature in different flavors in order to provide electric power supply secure, sustainable and competitive to consumers. In addition, the revolution on the Internet of Energy involves a significant change inside of the consumer where consumers will also become a producer with the ability of energy storage such as in the vehicle battery, or as local generation sources such as photovoltaic panels.
The main problem in the development of the Internet of Energy is not located at the physical medium but mainly in the delivery of reliability and security. The possibility of fitting with active or passive attacks on the Internet of Energy network is great to divulge privacy and disrupt energy (e.g. Wormhole Attack, False Data Injection Attack, Black Hole Attack, Grey Hole Attack, DoS Attack, Physical Layer Attack, Colluding Adversary Attack, Routing Table Overflow Attack etc.). Therefore, the security requirements, including authentication, accountability, integrity, non-repudiation, access control and confidentiality should be paid more attention in the future for high-performance Internet of Energy.
