Image: Baywa r.e<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Czech national cybersecurity agency has warned that Chinese solar inverters represent a threat to the country\u2019s data security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The increasing digitisation and presence of \u201ccomplex technological solutions\u201d in critical sectors like energy represent a security threat, the National Cyber and Information Security Agency (N\u00daKIB) warned yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Infrastructure systems like energy grids, healthcare and transportation are increasingly dependent on cloud-based data storage and processing and remote control. N\u00daKIB said this means that the providers of those technology solutions \u201ccan significantly influence the operation of critical infrastructure and\/or access important data, making trust in the reliability of the provider absolutely crucial.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those devices are increasingly connected to the Internet and can be controlled remotely by their manufacturers. The agency identified photovoltaic inverters as a high-risk product alongside large language models, electric vehicles, smart meters, medical technologies and personal devices like smart phones and watches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>N\u00daKIB cited \u201cConfirmed malicious activities by actors linked to the PRC (People\u2019s Republic of China) directed against the Czech Republic\u201d as background for its concerns, including a \u201ccampaign\u201d by the hacking group APT31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It added that the \u201cpolitical and legal environment of the PRC\u2026 allows Chinese government authorities access to data stored on the territory of the PRC or significant interventions by Chinese government authorities in the operation of private companies.\u201d This could raise questions about the security protocols of Chinese inverter producers. N\u00daKIB included Hong Kong and Macau in its risk assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies using Chinese-made solar inverters \u201cmust take the threat into account in their risk analyses and respond to the identified risks by implementing adequate security measures\u201d as a result of the findings, under the Czech Cybersecurity Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inverter-cybersecurity\"><strong>Inverter cybersecurity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this year, it was reported that US energy officials found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pv-tech.org\/rogue-devices-found-in-chinese-solar-inverters-raises-cybersecurity-alarm-in-europe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201crogue\u201d communication devices<\/a> in Chinese-made solar inverters, which could have opened back-channels for data sharing with China or for hackers to bypass security measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement sparked concern in Europe. The European Solar Manufacturing Council (ESMC), a trade group representing EU solar manufacturers, called on the European Commission to investigate the \u201crisk potential for sabotage and espionage\u201d and the ability of component manufacturers to \u201csignificantly influence\u201d European grids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pv-tech.org\/lithuania-to-block-chinese-inverters-with-cybersecurity-legislation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lithuanian government<\/a> has already limited the access of Chinese inverters to its solar and wind projects amid cybersecurity concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SolarPower Europe, the continent\u2019s leading trade body, has called for greater <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pv-tech.org\/solarpower-europe-european-solar-cybersecurity-needs-superior-implementation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cybersecurity measures at the European level<\/a>, especially as solar PV and other distributed energy resources take a larger portion of the energy mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like most of the world, Europe is heavily reliant on Chinese-made renewable energy products, particularly for solar PV. Simultaneously, the continent\u2019s inverter manufacturers are struggling against market headwinds and increased price competition from Asian supplier, something which SolarPower Europe has said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pv-tech.org\/eu-must-act-now-to-support-inverter-manufacturers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">needs to be addressed.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a
