Isaac Occhipinti, Head of External Affairs said “As the smart grid is becoming increasingly sophisticated and complex throughout Europe, the focus on cyber security has never greater. It has been estimated by Lloyds of London that a cyber attack on the US smart grid could cost as much as $1 trillion in a worst case scenario attack. This highlights the importance of improving smart grid cyber security and of continually keeping up to date with industry developments and so we are delighted to be teaming up with SMi to offer our members discounted delegate rates for this event. ”

SMi’s European Smart Grid Cyber Security conference will provide the ideal platform to discuss major innovations and to foster industry discussion between utilities as well as other key players in the market. Issues surrounding standardisation and compliance will also be addressed, in addition to case studies being provided which will focus on the cyber security activities of various European utilities including E.ON, Alliander, SSE, Enexis, National Grid and Enel.
