Secure smart grids improve sustainability, efficiency and reduce
threats
Today’s highly successful smart grids have become
comprehensive IoT networks with millions of connected meters that share
massive real time data about people, businesses and energy consumption.
The valuable insight they provide enables consumers to save on energy
bills and utilities and energy players to better balance supply and
demand. It is also crucial information to help integrate renewable
energy sources, helping to improve sustainability. As the marketplace
and number of connections continues to expand by an estimated 30% each
year1
, so does the cyberattack surface. The motivations for
hacking this critical infrastructure are high and diverse: energy
consumption fraud, insight into households’ activity and absence, grid
instability, pressure on governments, ID theft. Digital security is
paramount to an efficient grid´s success.
