CCRC published its technical report on “Security Recommendations for Distributed Energy System Aggregators, Based on METI Cyber and Physical Security Framework,” in September 2021.
Standardization of security protocols in hardware and software engineering is critical to implementing Virtual Power Plants (VPPs). The Cyber and Physical Security Framework presented by the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry aims to align the implementation of DER devices with international standards for the configuration of products and services within the global supply chain. The requirement for trust in organizing, implementing, and securing DER systems informs the creation of a multi-tiered approach to gaining trustworthiness.
In this report, CCRC provides the technology reference for DER system security in alignment with the above framework and suggests the best practices recommendations of security, authentication, and network with the application of various international standards.
