What is a proportionate way to address cyber security risks, in particular risks to the electricity system, of smart charging of electric vehicles? Can this be done with minimal impact on innovation and consumer uptake of smart charging?
Background
BEIS has committed to ending the UK’s contribution to global warming by achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Our work towards becoming a leader in green technologies and clean energy will drive economic growth, all whilst accelerating global climate action through strong international leadership.
