EU Wants to Ban Huawei in Solar Energy: Threat of Blackouts.
According to inkorr.com: The European Union is seriously concerned about the dominance of the Chinese company Huawei in the solar inverter market. The EU calls for a ban on the use of 'high-risk suppliers' in solar systems, fearing potential interference with the operation of energy networks. This information is reported by the publications 'Glavkom' and Politico.
Experts are worried about the risk of remote control of inverters that convert energy from solar panels into electricity. Such actions can lead to serious interruptions in the functioning of power grids, which have already occurred in Spain and Portugal.
Erika Langerova from the Czech Technical University warns that malicious actors could interfere with the network even prepared to set it on fire.
Members of the European Parliament have turned to the European Commission demanding urgent measures to protect critical infrastructure from 'high-risk suppliers'. Several countries have already banned the use of Chinese components in solar power plants and have started investigations.
Danger to the European Technology Sector
The dominance of Chinese companies in the field of solar energy undermines trust in the security of energy networks in the EU. Europe is becoming increasingly dependent on Chinese suppliers in the field of renewable energy, which threatens the energy security of the region.
The European Union is beginning to implement initiatives to identify and limit 'high-risk suppliers' in various areas, including digital infrastructure. This confirms the presence of Chinese companies, such as Huawei, in the fields of energy and technology.
Thus, the threat to the security of energy networks in the European Union is growing due to Huawei's dominance in the solar inverter market. Fears are raised by the potential interference with the operation of energy networks and the risk of blackouts that may occur as a result of malicious actions. The European Union has already begun effective measures to protect against 'high-risk suppliers' and is trying to minimize dependence on Chinese companies in the renewable energy sectors.
