💨 Abstract

energy officials are re-evaluating the risks posed by Chinese-made power inverters, crucial components in renewable energy infrastructure, after discovering undocumented communication devices within them. These inverters, predominantly made in China, connect solar panels, wind turbines, and other renewable energy sources to electricity grids. The rogue devices could potentially bypass firewalls, allowing remote access and control, which could destabilize power grids and cause widespread blackouts.
