During the last years, the University of Liège, the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the Université Libre de Bruxelles together with the company Haulogy have collaborated on the CYPRESS project.
The energy transition leads towards smarter electric power systems taking the form of cyber-physical systems in which the electrical power grids are strongly interlinked with a growing number of information and communication systems. The CYPRESS (Cyber-Physical Risk of the bulk Electric Energy Supply System) aims at developing novel knowledge, methods and tools needed to help ensuring the security of supply through the transmission grid, while accounting for the specific nature of cyber-threats and integrating them into a coherent probabilistic risk management approach.
The project started on November 1st, 2020 and has now entered its final year. In this context, the CYPRESS consortium is organising a series of workshops.
