Spain Investigates Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities at Small Solar and Wind Power Plants After Blackout

Spain has initiated an investigation into the cybersecurity defenses of small and medium-sized power facilities, including solar and wind farms, following a recent blackout. Authorities are requesting information from these smaller electricity generators to assess whether vulnerabilities in their cyber defenses could have been exploited by malicious actors to cause the outage. The probe aims to evaluate the robustness of cyber protections at these decentralized energy sources, which have become more prevalent in Spain's energy landscape.
