Future digital energy systems are vulnerable: extreme weather events, cyberattacks and disasters pose a threat to electricity distribution and transmission networks. The new stress test tool enables decision-makers from politics, public administration and disaster preparedness to identify the impact of external shocks on the energy and transport systems and to develop measures to strengthen their resilience.
IQIB developed the tool in collaboration with stakeholders from academia and industry as part of the project “ReMoDigital – Resilience Monitoring for the Digitalisation of the Energy Transition” (funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy) under the leadership of project coordinator Dr Bert Droste-Franke (IQIB).
Further information on the stress test tool can be found in the interview with Dr Bert Droste-Franke (conducted by Mareike Lenzen, Research Communications at Projektträger Jülich): Interview
