Wind and solar reached 30% of EU electricity, higher than fossil power (29%) for the first time on record, and up from 20% just five years prior. By 2025 wind and solar generated more power than all fossil sources in 14 of the 27 EU countries. Solar grew in every EU country and accounted for more than a fifth of electricity in Hungary, Cyprus, Greece, Spain and the Netherlands. Coal power fell to a new historic low of 9.2%. Battery deployment accelerated significantly in 2025.

The potential of smart grids, particularly those utilising renewable energy such as solar, wind, and biomass, cannot be overstated. These DERs provide flexibility, reduce transmission losses, and can help mitigate the volatility of energy supply. Nevertheless, as energy grids become more decentralised, the accompanying risk of cyberattacks increases. This research project seeks to address the dual challenge of promoting the use of distributed energy resources while enhancing the cybersecurity of distributed energy systems.
