Ensuring CyberSecurity in Grid-Connected Storage Assets

Why Cybersecurity in Energy Storage is More Crucial Than Ever

Growing connectivity and network convergence bring efficiency to the grid but also create new vulnerabilities.

As an essential component to support North American grid operators in meeting the constraints of the real-time demand-supply equilibrium, energy storage systems need to be adequately protected and compatible with the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) standard to ensure they can’t be used to compromise the grid on which so many rely.
