eFORT is an EU-funded project that will make European power grids more resilient and reliable against failures, cyberattacks, physical disturbances and data privacy issues. eFORT will increase power system stability by developing technologies for identifying, preventing, and mitigating risks and vulnerabilities.

The need for eFORT is prompted by power and electricity systems undergoing unprecedented changes caused by social and environmental concerns. The holistic approach of the project covers the whole grid value chain and is demonstrated in four pilot sites.

The impact of MaDIoT attacks on Power Systems 

The digitalization of energy systems brings unprecedented opportunities for efficiency and flexibility—but it also introduces new vulnerabilities. As more Internet of Things (IoT) devices and Distributed Energy Resources (DER) connect to the grid, attackers gain potential entry points to disrupt operations. Within the eFORT project, researchers at Universidad Pontificia Comillas have been investigating these risks for European power systems, publishing two scientific articles:  Rodríguez Pérez, N., […]
