Cybersecurity tools for renewables protection developed

The US energy department is supporting the Iowa State-led project with a three-year, $2 million grant. The researchers call their effort 'GridDeep' and will research, develop and demonstrate a system that uses artificial intelligence tools to improve the cybersecurity of the country’s energy delivery systems.

Engineers develop cybersecurity tools to protect solar, wind power on the grid

Solar panels and wind turbines, now projected to produce 44% of America’s electricity by 2050, present cybersecurity challenges.

They have sensors, controllers, actuators or inverters that are directly or indirectly connected to the internet. They’re distributed far and wide across the country and the countryside. Many have insecure connectivity to legacy electric grid systems. They have complex physics. They’re subject to advanced persistent threats. And there will be more and more of them going online. So there’s a need for cybersecurity systems that “prevent, detect and mitigate” attacks on renewable sources sending power to the grid, said Gelli Ravikumar, a research assistant professor of ...
