Low-carbon technologies, from renewable generation to electric vehicle chargers, and virtual power plants to demand response software, involve millions of grid- and Internet-connected systems, each one a potential entry point for cyberattacks.
Europe, under pressure from Russian hackers, is at the forefront.
Indeed, while attacks are becoming more frequent and more aggressive, they have so far caused no substantial damage.
The industry says it is holding well.
Artificial intelligence is making attacks on corporate networks faster and cheaper, but whether it can effectively reach the systems that run the grid remains unclear.
