Energy Security & Protection of Energy Infrastructures

The energy transition towards electrified systems opens up great opportunities - from increasing efficiency to reducing emissions. At the same time, our dependence on a highly complex, decentralized and digitalized electricity grid is growing. Fluctuations caused by high generation shares from renewable energy sources such as wind or photovoltaics, increasing load peaks due to electromobility, electric heating systems (e.g. heat pumps) or AI applications are placing new demands on stability, protection and resilience. Hybrid threats, i.e. the combination of cyber attacks, physical sabotage and disinformation campaigns, further increase the risks.

What does "energy security" mean?

  • Future-proof robustness and resilience

    • Ensuring a stable energy supply for industry, transport and households

    • Evaluation of sustainability measures with regard to their resilience effect

    • Cross-sector analyses (energy, communication, logistics, health)

  • Protection of critical energy infrastructures

    • Development of individual protection concepts for centralized and decentralized systems

    • Protection against physical attacks, sabotage and drone threats

    • Testing the resilience of batteries, hydrogen and wind power systems

  • Security of supply in digitalised energy grids

    • Preparing for disruptions caused by variable generation and cyber-physical risks

    • Simulation of crisis scenarios and training for energy suppliers, grid operators and authorities

    • Development of coordinated response and restart strategies

We combine analysis, simulation, training and testing
into an integrated security concept

With our interdisciplinary expertise in the fields of energy, defence & security, geodata, simulation and testing, we offer tailor-made solutions to protect critical energy infrastructures and secure the energy supply of the future.
