Google News - OT/ICS searchenergy

What happened. NGC has set a deadline for independent power producers (IPPs) to restore their telemetry systems. It targets 95% data quality for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) data.

Who is affected. Independent power producers that send telemetry to NGC, and energy operators with telemetry links to the grid operator.

What to do. Check whether your telemetry links to the grid operator are working and meet the stated 95% SCADA data quality target.

When to act. For awareness: background reading, nothing to schedule

Level 3, site operations; Level 2, supervisory control (HMIs, SCADA, engineering workstations)

Why: SCADA telemetry data is collected and served by site SCADA and operations systems (L2, L3) before being sent to the grid operator.

Are you exposed?

Check your telemetry and SCADA data quality reports against the 95% target and the stated deadline.
