"SDSU Researchers Working to Protect Power Grids Against Natural Disasters and Cyberattacks"
Researchers at San Diego State University (SDSU) are developing methods to protect power grids from the effects of cyberattacks and natural disasters. They will explore "energy space" to better understand power grid dynamics. In researching energy space, the team is developing a sensing and control system to monitor power distribution grids that host energy storage structures, renewables, and electric vehicles. Power grid blackouts have occurred because of cyberattacks and natural disasters.
