The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) recently joined with six industry organizations in creating the Nation Wind Cybersecurity Consortium to advance the protection of the U.S. wind fleet.
The partners include large players in the field, including General Electric, Siemens Gamesa, Berkshire Hathaway Energy, Ørsted, and Vestas. While they can provide real-world data and industry-relevant use cases, in return, they will gain access to NREL’s research, with an end goal of collaborative analysis, development, and information-sharing arrangements.
“This collaboration brings the unique opportunity for Berkshire Hathaway Energy to evaluate today’s most pressing security challenges to the wind energy sector while learning from the perspectives of our partner organizations,” Jeffrey Baumgartner, senior advisor at Berkshire Hathaway Energy, said. “With access to NREL’s research platforms, we can safely explore these perspectives and evaluate a multitude of cyber threats and potential consequences to wind systems across the United States.”
