Description

National Facility for Electricity Grid Security and Resilience Research. This project aims to build a National Electricity Grid Security and Resilience Facility to investigate new and emerging security threats in large-scale industrial control systems. The Facility should provide a rich and unique characterisation capability of large-scale industrial control systems operated within electricity grids, generating new innovative and interdisciplinary knowledge across the fields of control, security, and power systems. This strategic facility will give researchers a significant advantage in the development of new methods for the secure operation of industrial control systems and approaches to counteract cyber threats, providing substantial benefits for critical electrical infrastructure and national security.. Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 4007 - Control Engineering, Mechatronics and Robotics. Lead: A/Prof Elizabeth Ratnam
