Microgrid, Energy & AI Security & Insurance Afterwork

​Securing and Insuring New Energy Systems & Microgrids

​Cybersecurity, physical protection, safety and insurability - from design through field deployment

​As generation, storage and controls move closer to customers, energy systems face Capex spend challenges, as well as risk management for connected cyber,, deployment and maintenance challenges. This session brings critical infrastructure operators and specialists together to explore how security, safety, emergency response and insurance can be built into project design - so new systems like microgrids and nanogrids can earn operator confidence and deploy with fewer delays.

​Who should attend

• ​Utility CISOs, OT security leads and grid operations executives

• ​Data center, industrial, military and critical infrastructure security, safety and risk leaders

• ​Microgrid developers, energy technology providers and system integrators

• ​Insurers, brokers, risk advisers and risk engineers

• ​Cybersecurity, physical security, inspection and threat detection providers

• ​Fire services, emergency responders, testing and certification specialists

• ​Public-sector and infrastructure resilience officials

​Discussion prompts

• ​What cyber and physical risks arise as energy assets and controls become distributed?

• ​What security and safety requirements for design, procurement and deployment?

• ​What evidence do operators and insurers need to assess new technologies and risks?

• ​How should fire prevention, detection and emergency response be planned for a site?

• ​How can security, insurability and rapid field deployment enable agility and speed?
