Secure Clean Energy Initiative

Digital technology will help drive the critical transition to clean energy. For this transition to be effective, the technology powering it has to be secure.  Securing that technology will require new cybersecurity thinking from both cyber and clean energy practitioners and policymakers.

In 2024, CLTC is launching the Secure Clean Energy Initiative, a new branch of our research, convening, and education activities, guided by two pillars of all CLTC’s work:

  • Helping decision-makers act with foresight
  • Expanding who participates in cybersecurity 

Questions driving this work include: 

  • What do cybersecurity professionals need to know about clean energy infrastructure that is coming online in the next decade? 
  • What do clean energy developers need to know about evolving vulnerabilities on the internet?
