520 _aThe European Union (EU) has a high level of energy security, enabled by oil and gas reserve stocks, and one of the most reliable electricity grids in the world. However, a number of established and emerging trends pose new challenges to the security of energy supply, notably in the electricity sector. The production, distribution and use of energy is becoming increasingly digitalised and automated, a trend which will further increase with the transformation towards a distributed carbon-neutral energy system and the growth of the 'internet of things', which means that more and more networked devices will be connected to the electricity grid. This provides increased opportunities for malicious actors to carry out attacks on the energy system, notably cyber-attacks, possibly in combination with physical damage and social engineering. It also increases the risk of inadvertent disruption. Hackers are becoming increasingly capable, and are already probing and exploiting vulnerabilities in the energy system, as a number of incidents outside the EU have demonstrated. The 2008 Directive on European critical infrastructures has been the basis of the EU approach. The EU has recently reinforced its approach to cybersecurity, through legislation, standards and reinforcement of the European Agency for Network and Information Security, which will take on new coordinating and operational roles in cybersecurity. A recent European Commission communication on cybersecurity in the energy system provides guidance, and binding rules for energy system operators are under development in the form of a new network code on cybersecurity. The April 2019 European Commission recommendation underlines that the cybersecurity of the energy system, and notably the electricity grid, needs a dedicated sectoral approach because of realtime requirements, a mix of advanced and legacy technologies, and the cascading effects of disruptions. Experts see a growing need for improved exchange of knowledge and information, standardisation and certification, development of cybersecurity skills, and regulation.
