Reuters published a story yesterday that seems alarming on its face — Chinese manufacturers may be putting secret communication devices in our solar inverters.
US energy officials are reassessing the risk posed by Chinese-made devices that play a critical role in renewable energy infrastructure after unexplained communication
Using the rogue communication devices to skirt firewalls and switch off inverters remotely, or change their settings, could destabilise power grids, damage energy

However, rogue communication devices not listed in product documents have been found in some Chinese solar power inverters by US experts who strip down equipment hooked up to grids to check for security issues, the two people said.
U.S. officials have discovered undisclosed communication devices on Chinese-made power inverters that were being used on solar panels, Reuters reported today based on anonymous sources within the federal government. The inverters are devices separate from power sources like solar arrays or batteries.
U.S. energy officials have launched an investigation after discovering unauthorized communication equipment embedded within Chinese-manufactured solar power inverters connected to critical infrastructure grids across the country.
Reuters was unable to determine how many solar power inverters and batteries they have looked at. The rogue components provide additional, undocumented communication channels that could allow firewalls to be circumvented remotely, with potentially catastrophic consequences, the two people said.
