6 FAQs about [The photovoltaic inverter industry is fraudulent]
Are solar photovoltaic inverters at risk?
Operating-technology (OT) devices like solar photovoltaic inverters, when connected to the Internet, are at higher risk relative to stand-alone OT devices. They must be able to prevent, detect, and respond to unauthorized access or attack.
Are solar inverters a cyber risk?
Historically, cyber risk for solar was relatively minor, given how few systems were deployed and because most solar inverters did not communicate for monitoring or control. However, as more solar is installed and inverters become more advanced, this risk grows. Inverters are the interface between solar panels and the grid.
Does rooftop solar have a fraud problem?
Rooftop solar has a fraud problem. The industry is working to build back trust A crew installs a solar array on the roof of a home in Frankfort, Ky., in 2023. PHILADELPHIA — The solar power industry is booming and that growth helps the world meet its climate goals by replacing fossil fuels.
Are solar inverters safe?
