Renewable energy providers, developers and asset owners face an increased risk of attacks because of gaps in cybersecurity plans as it is very hard to manage the cybersecurity risk when things are growing rapidly and organizations are severely lacking in operational technology.

Develop Cybersecurity Systems to Detect Attacks on Renewable Sources

A Green future depends on the security and cyber resilience of renewable technologies

Partners Building Innovative Solutions

We need much deeper cybersecurity collaboration in order to advance the world’s energy system to become more sustainable, flexible, and secure.

When we operate in a joint ecosystem where we trust to share cybersecurity information is when can truly build joint resilience. 

Realtime yet responsible information exchange is the future, especially as the decentralized energy system of our low-carbon world will require exponential growth in new electric and digital connections.

Renewable Energy Cybersecurity Plan:

  • Asset Inventory

  • Vulnerability Management

  • Management of change

  • Monitoring

Why avoid Cyberattacks on Renewable Energy ?

Because the consequences are expensive and difficult to remedy. The effects can be:

  • Hiring experts to mitigate the damage

  • Data loss

  • Loss of benefits due to partial or total interruption of the company's computer system.

  • Ransom payment

  • Identity control services

  • Notification costs

  •  Research expenses

  • Sanctions

  • Third-party claims (defense expenses, compensation)

  • Expenses to restore the loss of image and reputation

Potential Renewable Energy Solutions:

Different protection services can be found, ranging from minimal security updates to large-scale hardware replacements.

This can mainly mean :

  • Reduce the risk of downtime

  • Prevent damage to reputation and theft of intellectual property

  • Maintain operational rigor to achieve best practices

  • Updates to systems that detect intrusion threats

  • Hardware update in servers and SCADA networks

There is no single solution to achieve total protection against cyber attacks. The smart grid is still a network of IT/OT machines with data flows between them. The renewable energy industry also needs to work more closely with government institutions to protect against attacks. Most energy networks are in private hands and it is crucial to build public-private partnerships and be resilient to address the cyber dimension of energy security.
